Angiographien im Kleinkindes- und Kindesalter
FORTSCHRITTE AUF DEM GEBIETE DER RONTGENSTRAHLEN UND DER NEUEN BILDGEBENDEN VERFAHREN(1993)
Abstract
Between 1973 and 1991 we performed 160 percutaneous angiograms (130 arteriograms, 30 phlebograms) in children and infants; 12 patients were less than one year and 52 less than ten years old. 44 of the examinations were done by a DSA technique. The examinations were carried out under general anaesthesia except in 8 cases. In 50.7% an arteriogram was carried out for the investigation of a suspected or known tumour, in 9.3% an arteriogram was required following trauma. The most common phlebographic examination was for the demonstration of the spermatic vein; in 27 patients this was done for cryptorchidism or a varicocoele. The only complication following a diagnostic angiogram was perforation of one spermatic vein. There were no other complications requiring treatment, such as thrombo-embolic events. With a total complication rate of 0.6%, angiography in childhood is a relatively safe diagnostic method.
