Endovascular embolization is an important tool in the management of multiple pathologies as a preoperative adjunct in the care of arteriovenous malformations or vascular tumors.
We report a case of delayed distal Onyx migration after surgical resection of a glomus vagale tumor, which had been preoperatively embolized. In this report, the patient underwent successful embolectomy of the migrated Onyx fragment using manual aspiration.
This case represents the first in the literature to describe this potential delayed complication, as well as its management strategy.
血管内栓塞是多种疾病治疗的重要手段，可作为动静脉畸形或血管肿瘤治疗过程中的术前辅助手段。
我们报告了一例在手术切除颈静脉球体瘤后发生的 Onyx 胶远端迟发性移位的病例，该患者此前曾接受过术前栓塞治疗。在本报告中，患者成功地通过手动抽吸对移位的 Onyx 胶碎片进行了取栓。
本例是文献中首例描述这种潜在迟发性并发症及其处理策略的病例。
