RESUMO

Intra-arterial embolization is often utilized in medical practice preoperatively as adjuvant in controlling tumors, treatment of arteriovenous malformations and other vascular diseases. Often times, particles of different forms and compositions are employed. trisacryl (Embosphere®; BioSphere® Medical), a spheric embolic agent, is nowadays used with very satisfactory results. However, a new embolic agent spheric polyvinyl alcohol-covered polivinyl acetate (PVAc)- has been developed in Brazil. This study evaluates the degree of vascular occlusion, vascular recanalization and the necrosis of vascular wall caused by PVAc particles, compared with trisacryl, after renal embolization. Seventy-nine female albine New Zealand rabbits underwent arterial catheterization of the right kidney; Thirty-three animals were embolized with trisacryl, thirty-one with PVAc and fifteen were kept as control group, four animals were excluded (three trisacryl and one PVAc) due to early death. Five subgroups of six animals were created. The animals in the different groups were sacrificed 48 hours, 5 days, 10 days, 30 days and 90 days after embolization. The control group was divided into subgroups of three animals, for the same period of time. Their kidneys were dyed with hematoxylin-eosin (HE) and Masson tricromic and examined using optic microscopy. The results showed a significant difference between the five-day and ten-day groups with regard to the degree of vascular occlusion, and the amount of necrosis in the forty-eight-hour group. Both findings favor the PVAc group, with adequate tissue reaction (ischemia and volumetric reduction) and less recanalization than with trisacryl
