Emergency Uterine Artery Embolization Used for Managing Profuse Intra-Abdominal Bleeding and Uterine Rupture in a Patient with Advanced Cervical Cancer.

Advanced cervical cancer can lead to life-threatening vaginal bleeding. Emergency uterine artery embolization (UAE) has been successfully used in such cases to achieve hemostasis. Our case demonstrates the unusual emergency use of this procedure to cease heavy hemorrhage, which led to hematometra, uterine rupture and hemoperitoneum in a patient with a large tumor in the cervical region.
