Abstract

Transhepatic cardiac catheterization has gained increased interest as a novel technique for venous vascular access with few complications. We report important intra-abdominal bleeding encountered in two patients during transhepatic cardiac catheterization. We describe their management and suggest possible nonoperative strategies.
