Ultrasound-Guided Hepatic Artery Delivery of SiNc-TNs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Ultrasound was performed to assess tumor growth to approximately 1-2 cm prior to the experiments. Rabbits were anesthetized and maintained with inhalational isoflurane gas. A small cutdown was performed to expose the femoral artery and a 4 French vascular sheath was inserted. A 4 French angled catheter (Glidecath, Terumo Medical, Somerset, NJ) was used to select the celiac artery, and a 1.7 French tapered microcatheter (Excelsior SL-10, Boston Scientific, Natick, MA) and a 0.010” microwire (Transend EX, Boston Scientific, Natick, MA) were coaxially advanced to selectively catheterize the proper hepatic artery. Angiography was performed to identify liver and tumor vasculature. Selective delivery of 0.3 mg/mL SiNc-TNs in saline prepared according to published protocol (16 ) was then performed over one minute with hand injection (1.5 mL total volume, 150-200 mcg/kg).

Superselective Embolization for Delayed Post-Pancreatectomy Hemorrhage

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
This approach, was frequently employed at the hospital between 2005 and 2008, involved the application of embolization to the culprit lesion (Fig. 1). Hepatic artery patency was preserved intentionally. A microcatheter was typically navigated into the lesion, which was either a pseudoaneurysm or active bleeding site, and pushable coils (Cook, Bloomington, IN, USA) or a 40%–50% N-butylcyanoacrylate (NBCA)–lipiodol mixture were used.

Example of superselective embolization conducted on a 69-year-old man with delayed PPH 17 days after the classic Whipple procedure for cancer of the ampulla of Vater. a Celiac angiogram showing active bleeding (black arrow) at the common hepatic artery. b Superselective embolization with 40% N-butyl cyanoacrylate (NBCA)–lipiodol mixture through a 1.7-Fr microcatheter (Excelsior SL-10; Boston Scientific, Fremont, CA, USA) was performed on the bleeding site. Postembolization angiogram showed preservation of the proper hepatic artery. Technical success was achieved initially

Coronary Artery Fistula Closure with Glue

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For closure with glue (cyanoacrylate), initially the coronary ostium was catheterized with guiding catheter and a 0.014-inch guidewire was introduced through the catheter and advanced into the fistula. Then, the CAF was selectively cannulated with a 4-Fr catheter (GlideCath Vertebral, Terumo Europe N.V., Leuven, Belgium) and a microcatheter (Excelsior SL-10, Boston Scientific, Fremont, CA, USA) was advanced deep enough into the fistula through the 4-Fr catheter. Glue was mixed with Lipiodol (Lipiodol ultra-fluide, Guerbet, France) to make the occlusion of the fistula visible by fluoroscopy. Approximately 0.5 ml of cyanoacrylate (Liquiband; MedLogic Global, Plymouth, Devon, England) was mixed with 2.5 ml of Lipiodol and 1/6 diluted glue was yielded. The mixture was inserted into the fistula and afterwards a final angiography was performed.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
