    Abstract:
    CASE 1: A 61-year-old man having advanced gastric cancer was presented with massive hematemesis. We could not control bleeding by gastrointestinal endoscopic hemostatic therapy, so we performed a transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE). We performed embolization on the left gastric artery. CASE 2: A 58-year-old man having advanced gastric cancer was presented with hematemesis. We could not control bleeding by gastrointestinal endoscopic procedure, so we conducted TAE. We performed embolization on the left gastric artery and right gastric artery. In both cases, hemostasis was achieved by TAE, and effectively controlled the bleeding from advanced gastric cancer.
