Videos of the Terumo Progreat microcatheter | Which Medical Device

This 8 minute video shows a simple embolisation of a peripheral renal pseudoaneurysm. I used Terumo Azur CX detachable coils https://www.whichmedicaldevice.com/by... My 'goto' catheter for small vessel embolisation is the 2F Progreat used with an Asahi Meister single angle wire giving lots of torque. https://www.whichmedicaldevice.com/by... https://www.whichmedicaldevice.com/by...

This tight ureteric stricture required a micro wire (Meister 0.018") and microcatheter to cross. This was then upsized to a 0.035" system to allow balloon dilatation (presumed ischaemic stricture) and stenting. It is very unusual to need a 0.018" systemt to cross ureteric strictures, but it can be very useful.

This pseudoaneurysm occured in the mid splenic artery in a patient with chronic pancreatitis. The presence of a cystogastric stent to decompress the pseudocyst led to the presentation with major intermittent haematemesis. We chose to use a Viabahn to preserve the splenic artery. An alternative would have been to exclude the pseudoaneurysm by occluding the artery across/either side of ther neck. Dr Phil Haslam Consultant Interventional Radiologist.
