The object of the present invention is to provide an embolizing material
which is easily handleable and stable in quality and is solved by
providing an embolizing material comprising an ester derivative of a
polysaccharide having a weight-average molecular weight of 10,000-500,000
daltons and an average substitution degree of acyl group of over two; an
embolizing agent for arteriovenous aneurysm, which comprises the
embolizing material and an appropriate physiologically acceptable
water-soluble organic acid; and a method of producing an embolizing
agent, which comprises a step of dissolving the embolizing material in an
appropriate physiologically acceptable water-soluble organic solvent.
