Factors Associated with the Venous Penetration of a NBCA–Lipiodol Mixture during Transarterial Embolization: A Clinical Study of Intracranial Dural Arteriovenous Fistulas

Key Points

• This study aims to identify factors influencing the venous penetration of N-butyl cyanoacrylate (NBCA) during transarterial embolization of dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs).
• Conducted a clinical study focusing on cases involving DAVFs.
• Assessed venous penetration of NBCA-Lipiodol mixture during embolization procedures.
• Collected data on various clinical factors and their association with penetration rates.
• Identified specific clinical factors that significantly impact the venous penetration of NBCA.
• Demonstrated a correlation between improved penetration and successful embolization outcomes.
