In Vivo Feasibility of Arterial Embolization with Permanent and Absorbable Suture: The FAIR-Embo Concept

Abstract: Purpose Arterial embolization has been shown to be effective and safe for the management of bleeding, especially for postpartum and pelvic traumatic bleeding. We propose to evaluate the proof of concept of feasibility and effectiveness of arterial embolization with absorbable and non-absorbable sutures in a porcine model. Materials and Methods In the acute setting (n = 1), several different arteries (mesenteric, splenic, pharyngeal, kidney) were embolized using non-absorbable sutures (NAS): Mersutures TM braid… Show more

“…The effectiveness of SBM embolization is confirmed by M3 DSA and CTs showing persistent perfusion defect and cortical atrophy in the target areas, without significant evidence of local inflammatory reaction in accordance with the previous FairEmbo report [7].The risk of local inflammation or infection could vary depending on the different types of sutures and their own inflammatory properties [23][24][25].…”

“…The paper, ''FairEmbo concept for arterial embolizations: In vivo feasibility and safety with suture-based microparticles compared with microspheres'' introduced the technique of ''cutting the thread into small pieces'' and showed the possibility that this technique can reduce the cost of IR [3]. In the current trend where most interventional radiologists hope to use expensive and high quality imaging equipment and devices, the attitude of conducting research and publishing papers from the viewpoint of ''cheaper IR'' is commendable [4,5]. We should also not forget that by using good technique, we may be able to accomplish similar quality IR with cheaper imaging equipment.…”
