Embolization, Therapeutic Emboliwtion

Embolization is a treatment method used to reduce or completely block blood flow in blood vessels. This may be necessary for various conditions such as congenital arteriovenous malformations, angiodysplasia, malignancies and arterial rupture.

Embolization is carried out using various substances that are injected into the artery through a cannula. A cannula is then passed to the affected area and a material is injected through it to block blood flow. This material can be microparticles, metal coils, or polyvinyl alcohol foam.

The use of embolization can significantly simplify surgical intervention or replace it completely. This is especially important when treating children and people with poor health in whom surgery may be too risky.

The embolization procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia and takes from a few minutes to several hours. After the procedure, the patient may feel some discomfort or pain where the cannula was inserted, but this usually goes away within a few days.

It is important to note that embolization is not always the only treatment option. In some cases, surgery or other treatments may be required. Therefore, before undergoing an embolization procedure, it is necessary to conduct a full examination and discuss all possible treatment options with your doctor.
