Abstract
ASO Visual Abstract: Relevance of Preoperative Identification of Adamkiewicz Artery in Posterior Mediastinal Pediatric Tumors
Highlights
In posterior mediastinal pediatric tumors, spinal digital subtraction angiography (DSA) is a safe and reliable method for preoperative visualization of the AKA
Thirty-six children with posterior mediastinal tumors were evaluated for surgery at our clinic
In ten children with left-sided or bilateral tumor localized at vertebral level T8 to L1, the most probable location of the artery, spinal DSA was performed during preoperative workup to assess AKA
Summary
In posterior mediastinal pediatric tumors, spinal DSA is a safe and reliable method for preoperative visualization of the AKA.
