  • Title: Selective embolization of the inferior mesenteric artery in massive colonic bleeding.
    Author: Siegal B, Pajewski M.
    Journal: Isr J Med Sci; 1978 Apr; 14(4):481-4. PubMed ID: 307544.
    Abstract:
    A case is described in which massive rectal bleeding was controlled by selective embolization of the superior hemorrhoidal arteries. Selective therapeutic arterial embolization in colonic bleeding represents an important alternative to procedures such as surgery and infusion of vasospastic agents which carry a prohibitive risk in severely ill patients.
