Endovascular Management of Extra-Peritoneal Hematoma Secondary to Bladder Catheterization.

Bladder rupture related to Foley catheter insertion is a rare condition mainly reported in patients with chronic bladder disease. In the present case, this rare condition was associated with massive hematoma due to active arterial bleeding, which was treated by embolization. We present the case of a 38-year-old woman admitted to the gastroenterology department with decompensated alcoholic liver cirrhosis, anemia, malnutrition, and diabetes.

Indwelling double-pigtail plastic stents for treating disconnected pancreatic duct syndrome-associated peripancreatic fluid collections: long-term safety and efficacy.

Background: Long-term transmural double-pigtail stent (DPS) placement is recommended for patients with disconnected pancreatic duct syndrome (DPDS) and peripancreatic fluid collections (peri-PFCs). The long-term safety and efficacy of indwelling DPSs were evaluated.

Methods: Medical files of patients treated with DPS for DPDS-associated peri-PFC and with a follow-up ≥ 48 months were reviewed.
