Embolization of medium-sized vessels with the penumbra occlusion device: evaluation of anchoring function

Abstract Background The penumbra occlusion device (POD) is a recently developed metallic coil with a unique anchor segment. The purpose of this study was to investigate the anchoring function of the POD for embolization of medium-sized vessels in detail. Materials and methods We reviewed a series of...

description Abstract Background The penumbra occlusion device (POD) is a recently developed metallic coil with a unique anchor segment. The purpose of this study was to investigate the anchoring function of the POD for embolization of medium-sized vessels in detail. Materials and methods We reviewed a series of cases of proximal embolization of medium-sized vessels in which the POD was used. Endovascular outcomes and complications were assessed. The distance between the distal end of the first-indwelled POD and the microcatheter tip was defined as the “landing distance,” and this was also evaluated via fluoroscopic analysis. Results POD deployment was successful in 17 of 18 patients. The median landing distance was 9.6 mm, and no distal POD migration was observed after the formation of anchor loops. Conclusions The specific anchoring function of the POD enables effective proximal occlusion of medium-sized vessels.
