The intracranial arterial obstructions (narrowing or occlusion) found with intracranial tumors are rarely reported. Our 25 cases and those of the literature enable us to draw a statistical view of these facts. Meningiomas and gliomas are often concerned, and they principally involve the main arterie

β¦ Synopsis
Arterial occlusion of the internal iliac artery was successful in the relief of pain due to primary and secondary neoplasms of the bony pelvis in 8 of 9 patients. These included 3 giant cell tumors, l aneurysmal bone cyst, l recurrent chondrosarcoma, 3 metastatic renal cell carcinoma and 1 metastatic clear cell sarcoma. Calcification of the margin of the lesion occurred in 3 of 4 primary neoplasms after infarction. The transcatheter arterial occlusion was accomplished utilizing Gelfoam and stainless steel coils. Although most patients experienced pain and fever for several days following the procedure, no permanent sequelae or complications were encountered.

Arterial production of PGI2 was measured in patients with malignant bone tumors and compared to that in arteries from subjects with benign bone tumors and others without tumor. Arteries from all study subjects exhibited spontaneous and arachidonate-induced PGI2 release. Arterial production of PGI2 a
