Update Onyx embolization for plexiform arteriovenous malformation: Ante-grade drifting technique.
Xianli LvShikai LiangPublished in: The neuroradiology journal (2020)
With ante-grade drifting Onyx injection, it was possible to prevent serious bleeding complications and elevated complete embolization rate in plexiform AVMs. Younger patient age, haemorrhagic presentation at admission and low AVM Spetzler-Martin grade were significantly correlated with complete obliteration. Although there is not enough statistical power to show that the pretreatment mRS and the arterial perforation complication have a significant correlation, but its OR value is large, and there may be more data in the future to obtain further conclusion.
