[Arterial embolization in the care of massive hemorrhage from the rectum].
Haemorrhage from distal parts of the GIT is as a rule associated with diagnostic and therapeutic difficulties, in particular when massive haemorrhage is involved. The authors describe a group of three patients where the source of haemorrhage was an inoperable rectal tumour. This problematic condition was successfully treated by embolization of the upper rectal artery.
