Case study: Systemic complications following absolute alcohol embolisation of scalp arteriovenous malformation
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: Southern African Journal of Anaesthesia and Analgesia • Authors: S Agrawal --- Department of Anesthesia, Pain and Intensive Care, India YS Payal --- Department of Anesthesia, Pain and Intensive Care, India S Burathoki --- Department of Radiology, India V Asthana --- Department of Anesthesia, Pain and Intensive Care, India A Rizvi --- Department of Anesthesia, Pain and Intensive Care, India JP Sharma --- Department of Anesthesia, Pain and Intensive Care, IndiaAlcohol ablation is an accepted technique for the management of arteriovenous malformations. It is preferred due to the unique property of absolute alcohol to cause complete ablation and prevention of revascularisation. However, this technique is associated with multiple complications which... -
