[Management of iatrogenic hemorrhage after mechanical vascular recanalization].
Nine patients with hemorrhage due to revascularization procedures underwent successful embolization (5), surgery (2), covered stent implantation (1), or long-lasting ballon dilatation (1). Bleeding was the result of Fogarty thrombectomy (3), ring stripper revascularization (1), balloon dilatation (3), or perforation of the artery with the guide wire (1). In all cases, bleeding was stopped successfully without sequelae for the patients. In spite of the preceeding hemorrhage, local fibrinolysis with 1,000,000 units of urokinase was performed on the same day in 3 patients without any complications being observed.
