Iatrogenic Marginal Artery Dissection during Superselective Microcoil Embolization for Colonic Bleeding

Superselective Renal Artery Embolization in the Treatment of Iatrogenic Bleeding into the Urinary Tract

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of superselective renal artery embolization in patients with bleeding into the urinary system. MATERIAL/METHODS From 2007 to 2012, 20 patients were treated with superselective renal artery embolization for bleeding after percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL), nephron-sparing surgery (NSS), including 1 patient with AVF after PCNL. Dur...

Successful management of cavernosal artery pseudoaneurysm using microcoil embolization

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a common condition among men and has several causes. Among men under the age of 40, pelvic or perineal trauma is the most common cause of ED. Pelvic or perineal trauma often results in arterial injury as the likely mechanism of ED. We present the case of a 14-year-old male diagnosed with a pseudoaneurysm causing arteriogenic ED secondary to blunt force trauma to the...

superselective transarterial embolization for lower gastrointestinal bleeding: an analysis of its effectiveness and safety

conclusion superselective tae for lgi bleeding has a high success and low complication rate. there are no statistical correlations between the clinical success rate and several variables, including embolic material, embolization site, and anticoagulant or antiplatelet medication. patients and methods fifty-two patients who underwent superselective tae for lgi bleeding between 2003 and 2011 were...

Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate and Iatrogenic Arteriovenous Fistula Treated by Superselective Arterial Embolization

Iatrogenic pelvic pseudoaneurysm with concomitant arteriovenous fistula has been described as a rare and challenging complication, which may occur during transurethral resection of the prostate. We provide the first report of this complication after holmium laser enucleation of the prostate for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia. The attempt to control the bleeding by conversion to o...
