The purpose of this study was to present our initial experience with the Amplatzer® Vascular Plug (AVP) 4 in various arterial environments. This material was designed for the embolization of peripheral small vessels using a diagnostic catheter. Herein, the following three procedures using the AVP 4 were described: hemodialysis fistula occlusion as a treatment for the steal phenomenon, gastroduodenal artery embolization prior to liver radioembolization, and vertebral artery embolization for the treatment of subclavian artery pseudoaneurysm and arteriovenous fistula. All of the treated vessels were successfully occluded, and the devices remained in the original locations and configurations during the follow-up period. When compared with the previous generation of vascular plugs, the AVP 4 allows faster and safer procedures with less radiation exposure to the patients and angiography team.
本研究旨在介绍我们在各种动脉环境中使用 Amplatzer® 血管塞（AVP）4 的初步经验。该材料旨在使用诊断导管栓塞外周小血管。在此，描述了 AVP 4 的以下三种应用：作为窃血现象治疗的血液透析瘘闭塞、肝动脉栓塞前胃十二指肠动脉栓塞以及治疗锁骨下动脉假性动脉瘤和动静脉瘘的椎动脉栓塞。所有治疗的血管均成功闭塞，在随访期间，器械仍保持在原始位置和构型。与前一代血管塞相比，AVP 4 可使手术更快、更安全，且患者和血管造影团队的辐射暴露更少。
