[Therapeutic occlusion of the hypogastric arteries with isobutyl-2-cyanoacrylate in vesical and prostatic cancer (author's transl)].
The authors refer their clinical experience of the use of embolization of the hypogastric arteries in cases of serious haemorrhage of the bladder and prostate. The immediate results in the 14 cases observed are decidedly positive, especially considering the serious conditions of certain neoplastic patients, which ruled out alternative surgical treatment. Nevertheless, even when the embolization technique has been correctly used, the possibility exists that bleeding may start up again after some time, and this is always caused by the revascularization of the neoplasia.
