[Haemostatic embolization: possibilities and prospects. 190 cases (author's transl)]. 1981

J J Merland, and J P Melki, and J Chiras, and M C Riche

Among more than 1 100 embolizations performed by one team, 190 were for haemostatic purposes. Owing to the ever increasing availability of suitable material and trained operators, no vascular territory nowadays is unaccessible to the technique. Simultaneous identification of the lesions and control of bleeding are advantages which no longer need be demonstrated. It must be noted that haemostatic embolization can and should be used in debilitated patients with acute or chronic lesions, even in the presence of disseminated intravascular coagulation.
