Interventional diagnosis and treatment refers to the insertion of a catheter or instrument into the lesion for diagnosis and treatment through percutaneous puncture or the original cavity of the human body under the guidance of imaging medicine (X-Ray, ultrasound, CT or MRI). Its advantages are: large diagnosis and treatment scope and high treatment difficulty. It can not only reverse the embarrassment of the inability of medical drugs to change the tissue structure, but also avoid the "dramatic" damage to the body caused by surgery. It has minimal damage to the human body, but the therapeutic effect it can exert is very reliable and significant! Therefore, interventional medicine has become the "new favorite" of today's medical field. It is the third largest clinical discipline after internal medicine and surgery.
Interventional techniques include vascular intervention and non-vascular intervention. Vascular intervention includes: cardiovascular intervention and peripheral vascular intervention; non-vascular intervention includes: endoscopic intervention and percutaneous puncture. Basic technical methods: percutaneous puncture, percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA), stent implantation, transcatheter infusion (TAI), transcatheter embolization (TAE) There are many types and forms of interventional therapy, but the basic skills are similar. In layman's terms, the five main magic weapons of interventional therapy are: "infusion (drug), blockage (bad blood vessel), passage (good blood vessel), elimination (tumor) Take (foreign body, biopsy...)".
Indications:
Pulmonary: bronchial artery embolization (branchiectasis/lung cancer hemoptysis), bronchial artery infusion chemotherapy (lung cancer), pulmonary artery thrombolysis.
Liver: Hepatic artery and embolization (polycystic liver/liver cancer/hemangioma), selective portal vein branch embolization, intrahepatic portal-hepatic vein stent shunt (TIPS).
Pancreas: Arterial perfusion therapy for acute severe pancreatitis, arterial perfusion therapy for pancreatic malignant tumors.
Kidney: Selective renal artery embolization (polycystic kidney, renal tumor, trauma/postoperative bleeding), renal artery stenosis angioplasty.
Gynecology: embolization therapy for postpartum hemorrhage, embolization therapy for uterine fibroids, perfusion chemotherapy and embolization therapy for gynecological malignant tumors.
Arteries: Thoracic/abdominal aortic dissection stent implantation treatment, iliac-femoral artery occlusion angioplasty, brachiocephalic artery stenosis angioplasty.
Veins: Inferior vena cava-hepatic venoplasty (Buddha-Chiari syndrome), inferior vena cava filter implantation/removal, upper/lower extremity deep vein thrombolysis/thrombectomy.
Emergency: Arterial embolization therapy for bleeding from solid organs caused by various traumas, embolization therapy for bleeding from various arterial/venous malformations.
Contraindications:
