Abstract

Objective To evaluate the outcome of transcatheter arterial embolization(TAE) in postpartum hemorrhage.Methods Uterine arterial embolization(UAE) or internal iliac artery embolization(IIAE) was performed with gelfoam in 18 patients under the monitoring of DSA to show the bleeding sites.Results The bleeding was stopped in all patients with no serious complications.Conclusion TAE is an effective method for treating postpartum hemorrhage for its safety,easy performance and instant stoppage of bleeding,not only patients'life but also their uterine are saved.
