[Arterial catheter embolisation for bleeding from bladder carcinoma (author's transl)].
An inoperable bleeding carcinoma of the bladder is an indication for embolising the internal iliac artery. Catheter embolisation is to be preferred to surgical ligation of the internal iliac artery, since it is a simpler procedure. The desired effect, a cessation of bleeding, was immediately obtained in all patients. An additional patient with pyocystitis and a carcinoma was also helped.
