The Onyx system has been well established in recent years as a very important material in the treatment of arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). When using the Onyx, it is essential to wait for the creation of a plug around the tip of the catheter, which enables the effective forward penetration of Onyx. Recent reports have shown that the introduction of a dimethyl sulfoxide compatible dual-lumen balloon microcatheter improves the efficiency of AVM embolization. We report our recent experience of two cases of intracranial AVM embolization using Onyx and the transarterial balloon-assisted technique. In both cases, the procedures were successfully performed and the nidus of the AVM was totally occluded in a relatively short time. This technique may enable immediate forward flow and penetration of Onyx without concern about reflux. It may also reduce the procedure time and increase the angiographic occlusion rate. Navigation of the dual-lumen balloon microcatheter nevertheless remains a challenge.

“…Recent progress in balloon catheter technique has extended its clinical application to the treatment of intracranial A V M ' s . 2,3,5,6,9,17,18 This technique can now be employed in superselective angiography and in tolerance tests of temporary occlusion. Arteries feeding AVM's can be embolized by detachable balloon catheter.…”

The successful resection of a large posterior fossa arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is reported. A balloon catheter was used for temporary intraoperative occlusion of the basilar artery and feeding vessels of the AVM. Prior to occlusion of these arteries, newly tested substances to protect the ischemic brain were administered to prolong occlusion time. Resection of the AVM was completed without complication, and the patient returned to normal life. This is a useful intraoperative procedure for the resection of AVM's considered inoperable by conventional approaches.
