Detachable balloon embolization: concomitant use of a second safety balloon.
Publication/Presentation Date
1-1-1999
Abstract
We describe a relatively unusual case of carotid cavernous fistula in association with a persistent trigeminal artery, presumably related to aneurysm rupture near the carotid origin of the vessel. We emphasize the use of a second, nondetachable balloon solely for the purpose of stabilizing placement of the first device at the time of detachment.
