Transcatheter arterial embolisation of a ruptured pseudoaneurysm of the lingual artery with n-butyl cyanoacrylate

Traumatic Pseudoaneurysm of the Ascending Cervical Artery Treated with N-butyl Cyanoacrylate Embolization: A Case Report and Review of the Literature

“…This modality is applied with the goal of separating the pseudoaneurysm from its circulation and has been successfully described in the thyrocervical trunk using detachable coils [2,5]. Pseudoaneurysms in other areas of the vasculature have been treated with other endovascular methods such as with flow-diverting stents [7], Onyx [8], and NBCA [9]. NBCA was considered in our case as it is a permanent adhesive liquid embolic agent with a low viscosity that allows for deeper small vessel penetration and can be performed in a much quicker and less expensive manner than detaching several coils [9].…”

Management of Hemorrhagic Pseudoaneurysmal Arteriovenous Fistula of the Sphenopalatine Artery

“…Embolization with various agents to address ruptured and unruptured pseudoaneurysms of the internal maxillary artery has been described [3, 13, 15, 18]. Descriptions of acrylic liquid embolic agent use in the management of pseudoaneurysms without arteriovenous fistula consequent to acute trauma, surgical injury, and radiotherapy of the external carotid artery have been reported [16, 19, 20]. There are no reports describing the use of n-BCA embolization of the sphenopalatine artery for the endovascular management of active oronasal bleeding from a fistulous pseudoaneurysm.…”

Pseudoaneurysm of the lingual artery after concurrent intra‐arterial chemotherapy with radiotherapy for advanced tongue cancer

“…There have been only a limited number of reports describing pseudoaneurysm of the lingual artery 4–13. Most of them were secondary to surgery including tonsillectomy8, 9, 13 and total pharyngolaryngectomy 9, 12. Although there are reports describing a pseudoaneurysm of the common, internal, or external carotid artery after radiotherapy, none have been reported in the lingual artery.…”
