Emborrhoid

Case description: Emborrhoid

• Perform superior rectal arteries embolization using copolymer (Onyx™18).
• Liquid agents : Real-time display of embolic agent distribution.
• Deep penetration / Distal embolization to minimize the risk of recurrence (via the middle rectal artery).
• Use of the plug & push technique to fill the vascular bed. Be patient when using copolymer: inject slowly, take breaks, beware of reflux.
• Fill as many branches as possible from a single injection point.
• No greater risk of ischaemic complications with liquid agents than with mechanical agents or particles.
