Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Measure of the Riolan arch (diameter in mm)

    Evaluation of the difference in size (diameter in mm) of the Riolan arch

    CT-TAP before embolization and CT-TAP between 3 and 4 weeks after embolization, before surgery.

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Evaluation of the rate of complications related to preoperative embolization of the inferior mesenteric artery

    Between 21 and 30 days after embolization, before surgery.

  • Evaluation of the rate of anastomotic fistulas after colo-rectal surgery

    30 days after colorectal surgery

  • Evaluation of the rate of complications related to colorectal surgery

    30 days after colorectal surgery

Post-surgery visit V7 - D30: Last visit, additionnal exams

Procedure: Embolization of the inferior mesenteric artery

Interventions

The procedure is performed in a dedicated angiography room. After local anesthesia, a common femoral arterial approach is performed according to the Seldinger technique with the placement of a 4 French valve introducer. Catheterization of the superior mesenteric artery with a Cobra 4F catheter and angiography to confirm patency of the border arcade. Catheterization of the inferior mesenteric artery with a 4F cobra/shepherd hook catheter and angiography. Microcatheterization of the artery with a 2.7F or 2.8F microcatheter and embolization with microcoil leaving the first centimeters of the IMA in order not to interfere with the surgery. Catheterization of the superior mesenteric artery and final angiography to confirm the reinjection of the inferior mesenteric by the border arcade. Removal of the material and manual compression of femoral access. Clinical monitoring for 6 hours and discharge the same day of the procedure.
