title: [Embolization of aneurysma spurium of the superior gluteal artery].
abstract: While for the surgical treatment there are the transgluteal and the retroperitoneal approach, the alternative radiological modality is less invasive. It is performed by a from contralateral placed guidant-catheter in combination with a tracker catheter with the possibility of transcatheter embolization with liquid, particles or coils. The rate of success is high, complications are seldom and the hospital stay is short. Both modalities can and should be used complementary. In the case of an intractable acute hemorrhage transcatheter embolization should be used firstly.
