    Author: Scotti DM, Leiber C, Hur G, Marks GJ.
    Journal: Dis Colon Rectum; 1980; 23(5):313-7. PubMed ID: 6967395.
    Abstract:
    A case of exsanguinating rectal and retroperitoneal hemorrhage resulting from a ruptured inferior gluteal artery aneurysm is presented. Transcatheter embolization of Gelfoam and a Gianturco coil device resulted in the control of bleeding and proved to be a life-saving measure in a patient who was a poor surgical candidate.
