Use of the trispan device to assist coil embolization of high-flow arteriovenous fistulas

AJNR Am J Neuroradiol. 2002 Aug;23(7):1149-52.

Abstract

The Trispan device is a new tool designed for use in the endovascular treatment of wide-neck aneurysms with coils. We describe another application of this device to control coil deposition and to prevent coil migration during transvenous occlusion of high-flow arteriovenous fistulas.
