[Selective transfemoral embolization of the internal iliac artery in carcinoma of the bladder (author's transl)].
Inoperable bladder cancer and massive bleeding is an indication for selective bilateral transfemoral embolization of the internal iliac arteries. The method is preferred to the open ligation of these arteries. Histoacryl is the optimal material for longterm vascular embolization. In five patients with bleeding inoperable bladder cancer (stage T4N2) immediate and permanent haemostasis and a regression of pain was achieved.
