Sonodynamic changes after transcatheter arterial embolization in a vaginal hemangioma: case report
1Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, School of Medicine, Fukuoka University, Japan.
Abstract:
A 36-year-old pregnant woman with a rapidly growing hemangioma in the vagina was treated by transcatheter arterial embolization after delivery. Blood flow characteristics within the tumor were evaluated using transvaginal color Doppler ultrasound both before and after the embolization. The vascular resistance in the tumor vessels within the vaginal hemangioma was observed to be significantly decreased; the tumor reduced in volume following this non-surgical treatment.
