Abstract
In his pioneering work, Okuno and colleagues demonstrated the benefit of musculoskeletal (MSK) embolization, using imipenem as an embolic agent, in various diseases such as knee osteoarthritis (KOA), adhesive capsulitis (AC), tennis elbow and other sports injuries. As imipenem is a last-resort, broad spectrum antibiotic, its use is often not feasible depending on countries and their drug regulation. Since then, several other studies have used other material products such as microparticles or liquid embolics. In addition, several products in development or that are used in other indications may prove useful after full clinical evaluation of safety and efficacy.
In this article we will develop our recommendations, through an analysis of recent publications on MSK embolization.
期刊介绍:
Interventional radiology is an area of clinical diagnosis and management that is highly technique-oriented. Therefore, the format of this quarterly journal, which combines the visual impact of an atlas with the currency of a journal, lends itself perfectly to presenting the topics. Each issue is guest edited by a leader in the field and is focused on a single clinical technique or problem. The presentation is enhanced by superb illustrations and descriptive narrative outlining the steps of a particular procedure. Interventional radiologists, neuroradiologists, vascular surgeons and neurosurgeons will find this a useful addition to the clinical literature.
