  • Title: [Percutaneous catheter embolization of the of the internal iliac artery in life-threatening gynecological bleeding].
    Author: Müller JH, Müller B, Randow H.
    Journal: Zentralbl Gynakol; 1989; 111(22):1508-14. PubMed ID: 2618203.
    Abstract:
    16 patients with life-endangering hemorrhages caused by gynecologic malignancies have been treated with the percutaneous transcatheter embolisation. In general for embolisation of the internal iliac artery gelfoam was used. Life-endangering bleeding could be stopped in all cases, only 3 mild persistent bleedings and another recurrence of hemorrhage could be controlled conservatively. Major-complications did not occur. The significant advantage of catheter embolisation in controversy to surgical treatment is discussed.
