RESUMO

PURPOSE: To demonstrate the utility of intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) as an effective method of passive thermoprotection against cryogenic injury to neural structures during musculoskeletal and lymph node cryoablation. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Twenty-nine patients (16 men; mean age among men, 68.6 years [range, 45-90 years]; mean age among women, 62.6 years [range, 28-88 years]) underwent 33 cryoablations of musculoskeletal and lymph node lesions. Transcranial electrical motor-evoked potentials (MEPs) and somatosensory-evoked potentials (SSEPs) of target nerves were recorded throughout the ablations. Significant change was defined as waveform amplitude reduction greater than 30% (MEP) and 50% (SSEP). The primary outcomes of this study were immediate postprocedural neurologic deficits and frequency of significant MEP and SSEP amplitude reductions. RESULTS: Significant amplitude reductions were detected in 54.5% (18/33) of MEP tracings and 0% (0/33) of SSEP tracings. Following each occurrence of significant amplitude reductions, freeze cycles were promptly terminated. Intraprocedurally, 13 patients had full recovery of amplitudes to baseline, 11 of whom had additional freeze cycles completed. In 5 of 33 (15.2%) cryoablations, there were immediate postprocedural neurologic deficits (moderate adverse events). Unrecovered MEPs conferred a relative risk for neurologic sequela of 23.2 (95% CI, 3.22-167.21; P < .001) versus those with recovered MEPs. All 5 patients had complete neurologic recovery by 12 months. CONCLUSIONS: IONM (with MEP but not SSEP) is a reliable and safe method of passive thermoprotection of neurologic structures during cryoablation. It provides early detection of changes in nerve conduction, which when addressed quickly, may result in complete restoration of MEP signals within the procedure and minimize risk of cryogenic neural injury.

RESUMO

This study evaluated fundal arteriole angiographic revascularization after embolization with embolic microspheres of 3 different diameters in a swine model (16 swine, 31 arterioles). In the 50-µm group, 7 of 11 (64%) arterioles recanalized completely, 3 of 11 (27%) arterioles recanalized partially, and 1 of 11 (9%) arterioles had collateralization (no recanalization). In the 100- to 300-µm group, 7 of 10 (70%) arterioles recanalized completely and 3 of 10 (30%) arterioles) recanalized partially. In the 300- to 500-µm group, 7 of 10 (70%) arterioles recanalized completely, 1 of 10 (10%) arterioles recanalized partially, and 2 of 10 (20%) arterioles had collateralization. No difference was found between the groups in the degree of recanalization (P = .64). All embolized arterioles exhibited some degree of angiographic revascularization, irrespective of the microsphere size.

RESUMO

Background Bariatric embolization is a new endovascular procedure to treat patients with obesity. However, the safety and efficacy of bariatric embolization are unknown. Purpose To evaluate the safety and efficacy of bariatric embolization in severely obese adults at up to 12 months after the procedure. Materials and Methods For this prospective study (NCT0216512 on ClinicalTrials.gov ), 20 participants (16 women) aged 27-68 years (mean ± standard deviation, 44 years ± 11) with mean body mass index of 45 ± 4.1 were enrolled at two institutions from June 2014 to February 2018. Transarterial embolization of the gastric fundus was performed using 300- to 500-µm embolic microspheres. Primary end points were 30-day adverse events and weight loss at up to 12 months. Secondary end points at up to 12 months included technical feasibility, health-related quality of life (Short Form-36 Health Survey ([SF-36]), impact of weight on quality of life (IWQOL-Lite), and hunger or appetite using a visual assessment scale. Analysis of outcomes was performed by using one-sample t tests and other exploratory statistics. Results Bariatric embolization was performed successfully for all participants with no major adverse events. Eight participants had a total of 11 minor adverse events. Mean excess weight loss was 8.2% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 6.3%, 10%; P < .001) at 1 month, 11.5% (95% CI: 8.7%, 14%; P < .001) at 3 months, 12.8% (95% CI: 8.3%, 17%; P < .001) at 6 months, and 11.5% (95% CI: 6.8%, 16%; P < .001) at 12 months. From baseline to 12 months, mean SF-36 scores increased (mental component summary, from 46 ± 11 to 50 ± 10, P = .44; physical component summary, from 46 ± 8.0 to 50 ± 9.3, P = .15) and mean IWQOL-Lite scores increased from 57 ± 18 to 77 ± 18 (P < .001). Hunger or appetite decreased for 4 weeks after embolization and increased thereafter, without reaching pre-embolization levels. Conclusion Bariatric embolization is well tolerated in severely obese adults, inducing appetite suppression and weight loss for up to 12 months. Published under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 license.

RESUMO

We assessed interventional radiologists' task-based image quality preferences for two- and three-dimensional images obtained with a complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) flat-panel detector versus a hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) flat-panel detector. CMOS and a-Si:H detectors were implemented on identical mobile C-arms to acquire radiographic, fluoroscopic, and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images of cadavers undergoing simulated interventional procedures using low- and high-dose settings. Images from both systems were displayed side by side on calibrated, diagnostic-quality displays, and three interventional radiologists evaluated task performance relevant to each image and ranked their preferences based on visibility of pertinent anatomy and interventional devices. Overall, CMOS images were preferred in fluoroscopy ( p = 0.002 ) and CBCT ( p = 0.004 ), at low-dose settings ( p = 0.001 ), and for tasks associated with high levels of spatial resolution [e.g., fine anatomical details ( p = 0.006 ) and assessment of interventional devices ( p = 0.015 )]. No significant difference was found for fluoroscopic imaging tasks emphasizing temporal resolution ( p = 0.072 ), for radiography tasks ( p = 0.825 ), when using high-dose settings ( p = 0.360 ), or tasks involving general anatomy ( p = 0.174 ). The image quality preferences are consistent with reported technical advantages of CMOS regarding finer pixel size and reduced electronic noise.
