  • Title: Pelvic arterial embolization following hysterectomy and bilateral internal iliac artery ligation for intractable primary post partum haemorrhage.
    Author: Collins CD, Jackson JE.
    Journal: Clin Radiol; 1995 Oct; 50(10):710-3; discussion 713-4. PubMed ID: 7586965.
    Abstract:
    A case of successful arterial embolization following hysterectomy and bilateral internal iliac artery ligation for intractable primary post partum haemorrhage is described. The selected artery was a branch of the inferior epigastric artery. Little has been written to date in the radiological literature about embolization via pelvic collateral vessels following arterial ligation. Although there is a good argument for postponing surgery until transcatheter embolization has been attempted, this case demonstrates that embolization can still be successful even when performed following surgery.
