- Juvenile angiofibroma: major and minor complications of preoperative embolization(2012) OGAWA, Alex Itar; FORNAZIERI, Marco Aurelio; SILVA, Leonardo Victor Espana Rueda da; PINNA, Fabio de Rezende; VOEGELS, Richard Louis; SENNES, Luis Ubirajara; PUGLIA JUNIOR, Paulo; CALDAS, Jose Guilherme Mendes PereiraIntroduction: Juvenile angiofibromas (JA) are highly vascular, benign tumours for which surgery is the treatment of choice. In most services, embolisation is performed prior to resection. Nevertheless, there are few data on the complications of preoperative embolisation for JA. Aim: To describe major and minor complications of preoperative embolisation in a 32-year experience of patients undergoing surgical resection of JA at a tertiary hospital. Methods: Retrospective chart review study of 170 patients who underwent surgical resection of JA at a tertiary hospital between September 1976 and July 2008. Results: All patients were male. Age ranged from 9 to 26 years. Ninety-one patients had no complications after embolisation. Overall, 105 complication events occurred of which four major and 101 minor. Conclusion: In our series, preoperative embolisation for JA produced no irreversible complications and no aesthetic or functional sequelae. The vast majority of complications were transient and amenable to clinical management.
- Perimedullary arteriovenous fistulas in children: report on six cases(2012) MATUSHITA, Hamilton; CALDAS, Jose Guilherme Mendes Pereira; TEXEIRA, Manoel JacobsenBackground Perimedullary arteriovenous fistulas (PMAVFs) are rare spinal lesions and even more uncommon in children. Objective The aim of this study was to document rare occurrences of this type of arteriovenous malformation in six children treated at our institution. Methods The clinical data, radiological findings, and treatment in six cases of PMAVFs were reviewed. Six patients with PMAVFs were managed at our institution over a 5-year period. The patients (four girls and two boys), ranging in age from 6 to 15 years, presented with initially fluctuating, and eventually permanent and progressive, sudden-onset paraparesis, sensory disturbances, and sphincter dysfunction. The duration of symptoms before diagnosis ranged from 1 week to 13 years. Results All the patients underwent magnetic resonance imaging and spinal selective angiography, which demonstrated the characteristic imaging of an arteriovenous fistula. Embolization of the arteriovenous fistula was initially attempted in three patients with successful occlusion of the fistula in two. For the remaining cases, open surgery was performed, with complete occlusion of the fistula. There was no morbidity, regardless of the treatment performed. All the patients experienced neurological improvement after treatment. Conclusions No specific clinical or radiological characteristic of PMAVFs in the pediatric population was observed when our series was compared with a general series. Early diagnosis and timing of the therapeutic intervention seemed to avoid the development of irreversible ischemic myeloradiculopathy and prevented hemorrhage. Treatment for PMAVFs is difficult to standardize because these are extremely rare lesions with different angioarchitecture configurations.
- Estenose retal secundária à embolização arterial em trauma pélvico: relato de caso(2012) ABRÃO, Guilherme de Palma; MACHADO, Alexandre Tarso; TAGLIARI, Cláudia Mendes; BAQUET, Patrick; SEDAT, Jacques; CALDAS, José Guilherme Mendes PereiraTranscatheter arterial embolization of the internal iliac artery branches is an accepted technique for the control of the hemorrhage due to pelvic fracture. Despite its widespread use, complications of the technique are rarely described. We reported a rectum ischemic stenosis following embolization of lateral sacral artery to control intractable hemorrhage from a pelvic fracture.
