The effect of angioembolization for life-threatening retroperitoneal hemorrhage in patients with pelvic fracture

Conventionally, pelvic fracture-related acute retroperitoneal hemorrhage (ARH) is life threatening and difficult to control. However, the use of angioembolization to treat fracture-associated ARH improves the hemodynamic stability of patients with pelvic fractures. The role of angioembolization in the management of patients with pelvic fracture-related ARH was examined.
