Novel Application of Onyx Embolization in the Treatment of Pediatric Tongue Vascular Malformations
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Vascular malformations of the head and neck can require a multimodal management. The goal of complete removal by surgical resection has been made possible with pre-operative embolization, with reduction in blood loss, operative time, and residual disease. For decades, n-Butyl cyanoacrylate (NBCA) was the agent of choice for embolization. But with the advent of the Onyx liquid system, a new option was presented.
