 | | In the group that had the arteriography, 15 anomalies that would require modification were identified. |
 | | In the group who did not have the arteriography, there were two post-op strokes, the rate of wound hematoma was similar, and there was one intra-cerebral hemorrhage. |
 | | Allen Sills, of the Semmes-Murphey Clinic, which is associated with the University of Memphis, Texas, said in his presentation that intra-operative arteriography, on average, required less than 10 minutes of additional operating room time, and the cost was less than US$500 per case. |
