[Internal iliac artery embolization for the control of severe bladder and prostate haemorrhage].
From 1986 to 1988, internal iliac artery embolization was used for the treatment of severe bladder or prostatic bleeding in 16 male patients with an age range of 44-72 years. Good and effective control of the bleeding was achieved in 15 patients without any complication. The experience about this technique was reported in this paper, and the indication and complication of the method were discussed. This method is simple, safe and effective in controlling massive bladder or prostate hemorrhage.
