    Author: Maleux G, Stockx L, Van Steenbergen W, Marchal G.
    Journal: J Belge Radiol; 1998 Aug; 81(4):176-7. PubMed ID: 9828538.
    Abstract:
    A case of hepatic arterial haemorrhage after percutaneous biliary drainage catheter placement is presented. Temporary control of the haemorrhage was obtained by placement of a larger drainage catheter which tamponaded the bleeding artery. Hepatic angiography followed by transcatheter embolotherapy provided a definitive control of bleeding.
