ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To evaluate the usefulness of the angiographic embolization for the treatment of postoperative bleeding. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
Six patients who suffered massive postoperative bleeding underwent angiographic embolization from March 1998 to June 1999. The initial diagnosis was femoral fractures in 4 patients, infected total hip arthroplasty in a patient, and open humerus fracture in a patient. When angiography revealed arterial tear, embolization was performed. The authors evaluated the effectiveness and the complication of angiographic embolization.RESULT:
Five patients had arterial tear and one patient had diffuse bleeding from the granulation tissue. Angiographic embolization was performed in all patients. There were 3 cases of injury of the deep femoral artery, a case of injury of a branch of the subclavian artery, and a case of injury of the superior gluteal artery. After the procedure swelling subsided and the amount of transfusion diminished in all patients. There was no complication related to angiographic embolization.CONCLUSION:
When there is suspicion of arterial injury after the operation, angiographic embolization can be used to confirm arterial injury and to control bleeding.
