[Catheter embolisation of metastasising renal carcinomas using butyle-2-cyano-acrylate (author's trabsl)]

Embolisation with butyle-2-cyano-acrylate was carried out in four inoperable renal carcinomas. By mixing this tissue adhesive with 50% glucose it remains suitable for embolisation for eight to ten minutes. Contact with blood produces the desired effect of immediate and permanent vascular occlusion. Since the material adheres to the vessel wall, it is not carried to any other vascular areas. No complications due to this material have been observed.
