A Single-center Experience with a Shear Thinning Conformable Embolic

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the technical success, effectiveness, and safety of transarterial embolization for acute bleeding management with a shear-thinning conformable embolic. This single-center retrospective study evaluated outcomes following embolization using Obsidio(OCE). Technical success was defined as performing transarterial embolization within the target vessel to complete stasis of antegrade flow. Treatment effectiveness was defined as cessation of bleeding for patients.
