  • Title: Pelvic arteriography in obstetrics and gynecology: arteriovenous fistulas and embolization.
    Author: Schneider GT.
    Journal: South Med J; 1984 Dec; 77(12):1494-7. PubMed ID: 6505757.
    Abstract:
    Pelvic arteriography has become an increasingly useful diagnostic and therapeutic tool in the past decade along with angiography of other areas of the body. A brief historical review of its development in obstetrics and gynecology since 1950 is presented, including placental localization and study of pelvic arterial adequacy. Modern practical uses include (1) diagnosis and therapy of pelvic arteriovenous fistulas, and (2) arterial embolization for intractable recurrent pelvic hemorrhage associated either with malignancy or with trauma or uncontrollable surgical bleeding.
