    Author: Yao DH, Luo XF, Zhou B, Li X.
    Journal: World J Gastroenterol; 2013 Nov 28; 19(44):8156-9. PubMed ID: 24307813.
    Abstract:
    Ileal conduit stomal varices are rare, and may result in bleeding. The standard treatment modality for management of this type of hemorrhage has not been established. We present the case of a 70-year-old woman with progressive ileal conduit stomal variceal bleeding which was successfully managed by endovascular embolization via the transjugular transhepatic approach. In conclusion, transjugular transhepatic endovascular embolization is a good choice in patients with ileal conduit stomal variceal bleeding who have failed conservative therapy.
