ABSTRACT
In 2014, Chapot et al. introduced the pressure cooker technique (PCT), conceived to control undesired reflux of the embolic agent during the treatment of brain arterio-venous malformations (bAVMs). Since then, this technique increased in popularity and it has been extensively used. We present five consecutive cases in which the original PCT was simplified using nylon coils instead of platinum coils and acrylic glue, hence the name of 'Simplified Pressure Cooker Technique' (sPCT). The aim was to obtain a safer, precise and faster creation of the plug to control cohesive embolic agent reflux during the treatment of brain and facial vascular malformations.
