Indications for embolic therapy of the left ISV include a varicocele associated with infertility, painful varicoceles, and a large varicocele in a child or adolescent with testicular atrophy or recurrent varicocele after previous embolization or surgery. Indications for embolization of a right ISV include a palpable varicocele associated with infertility and a recurrent or persistent left varicocele without apparent collaterals to the ISV, as demonstrated with left renal venography.
You can get done varicocele embolization or varicocelectomy. Varicocele embolization (also called catheter-directed embolization) is a nonsurgical treatment performed by an interventional radiologist in which he uses catheters and other instruments to shut off blood flow to the dysfunctional vein.
Hope that this information helps and hope that you will get better soon.
Wishing you good health.
A) right coronary artery is a large vessel with no angiographic stenosis. B) Lsft main coronary artery in normal in size.. C) circumflex artery is moderate-siazed. In mid-vessel is an apparent myocardial bridge. No angiographic stenosis in left anterior descending.
"Interestingly" the caliber of left coronary arteries are somewhat on smaller side. Patient tolerated procedure w/o complication... (except Bad Rash for several days after). HOWEVER..
There are a few treatment options for AVMs which you can discuss with your doctor. Many will go for an embolization surgery, but you can also look into removal or stereotactic radiosurgery. Make sure to talk about the pros and cons of each and see what will be best for your specific case. Hope you are doing well.
Thanks Doctor for kind of response. I appreciate your comments. From internet I heard one technique Embolization. will it be good as compare to surgery? and How much days rest needed for Varicocele Surgery.
My husband had a varicocele embolization performed a year and a half ago. The procedure went well and he has not had any problems up until a week ago when he began to experience pain in the left testicle where the embolization was done. He had an xray performed recently on him which seemed to show that the coils had moved down into his testicle, it hurts him to walk and seems to have severe sensitivity to hot and cold. The doctor inserted 35 titaniun coils.
Your cavity has not been successfully evaluated and your Gynecologist is now recommended hysterectomy which would allow reassurance and likely resolve your symptoms. Uterine Artery embolization would not resolve the concern of a possible underlying cancer. I suggest that you consider cytotec which is used for cervical ripening and try ultrasound guided EMB if you are resistant to hysterectomy.
A way to treat women with fibroids is called uterine fibroid embolization. Fibroids have a large blood supply that makes them grow., will shrink or go away completely( in theory) if the blood supply is stopped. embolization is a way to stop the blood flow that makes fibroids grow. fibroid embolization is not surgery, but it's done at a hospital.
does this problem will be solved after embolization cause I want to do embolization rather than surgery so
If I did do embolization, could the fact that one vein is already ligated give the embolization a better chance at success?
If you do not think the surgery was unsuccessful and think the varicocele could still go away with time, could you let me know why you think this?
Could erectile dis-function be a sideffect? My testis were examined today and are said to be OK. Been under a lot of anxiety and I have not received a morning erection like I use to b4 surgery.
ll also add that I have a testicular varacacele (sp?) and I just got a varacacele embolization done two weeks ago to have it fixed.... Thoughts?
i will give u his case history and angiographic test report. His age is 21 and doing his b.tech and he is in 2nd yr. we are very scared about his life. Please suggest something.
8cm (according to pathology report) with no vessel invasion. FYI...The HCC was also treated with chemo embolization 2x prior to transplant and was found to be 80% non active (due to the chemo embolization).
What are the chances that the HCC prior to transplant metastized to the lungs??? Does HCC react differently/aggressively with Hepatitis B versus Hepatitis C? Is it possible that the HCC spread to the lungs although the pathology report of old liver shows no vessel invasion???
There is a condition that I have called May-Thurner Syndrome that will cause all of your problems. I went in for a Vericocele Embolization because I was experiencing the same symptoms as yourself. During the embolization, my Interventional Radiologist discovered I had May-Thurner Syndrome and placed a stent in my left iliac vein. So between the embolization and stent it fixed all my problems.
If this is the cause of your bleeding the embolization may help that particular symptom. The embolization would
not be expected to improve the uterine prolapse or symptoms related to Painful Bladder Syndrome/Interstitial Cystitis. I am glad to hear that the botox injuction relieved 50% of your pain. That certainly suggests you are on the right track. If may need to be repeated.
Though there is no sure success treatment, but symptomatic treatment may provide some relief in recurring symptoms. Embolization that is cutting of the blood supply may provide some relief in small AVMs but still not a proven therapy. I would suggest you to meet your treating doctor for symptomatic treatment option in your case.
I really want to keep my uterus and told the doctor I want to try different options first so she suggested Uterine Artery Embolization, done by an Interventional Radiologist. That is what I am going to check into. She also recommended after they large ones were under control or eliminated by the procedure she could implant a Progesterone releasing IUD that would stop my periods all together. Is this safe? I am not sure. Still doing some research.
