Vascular anomalies: A pictorial review of nomenclature, diagnosis and treatment

Figure 13 Use of detachable coils, released only when satisfactory placement is achieved, may increase the safety of the procedure. Radiograph of the mid-diaphysis of the femur demonstrates a region of endosteal erosion (arrows) (A). Arteriography demonstrates a multifistulous malformation with arterial supply from two muscular branches of the superficial femoral artery (arrow) with early filling of intraosseous venous drainage (arrowheads) (B, C). Occlusion of the feeding arteries was accomplished with large coils (arrow) eliminating the fistulous communications (D, E).
