It involved injection of polymer-forming agent directly into the tumor vasculature whereupon it would promptly harden and plug the blood flow to tumor. Except that, the physician who was preforming the procedure did not put the catheter far enough into the correct branch of the artery and the injected stuff got into circulation instead and caused a wide-spread micro-embolisms in brain. End of story for the patient. What happened to the physician I am not sure.milkshakehttp://orgprepdaily.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
