title: [Management of traumatic pelvic bleedings using embolization].
abstract: Massive retroperitoneal bleeding in pelvic trauma is a difficult problem in surgery, and surgical treatment is rarely attempted due to the risk involved. Angiographic embolization in this region is an uncomplicated and effective measure that may be performed without general anesthesia and simultaneous with shock treatment. Four patients with massive traumatic hemorrhage in the pelvic region were successfully treated with embolization.
