We report three cases of post-partum haemorrhage following caesarean delivery attributed to a false aneurysm of the uterine pedicle and treated with artery embolization. These lesion were probably post-traumatic in origin related to hysterotomy. Angiographic study of the anterior division of hypogastric arteries confirmed the diagnosis and embolization of the false aneurysm was successful in controlling the haemorrhage.

Glue in Lockdown Technique to Embolize Peripheral Arterial Aneurysms.
J Nippon Med Sch
January 2025
Department of Radiology, Nippon Medical School.
As a blood flow control technique for embolization using glue (n-butyl cyanoacrylate; NBCA) for peripheral artery aneurysm/pseudoaneurysm, we placed a vascular plug or coils at the proximal inflow vessel before glue injection. We describe this maneuver, which we call the glue in lockdown technique. Four peripheral aneurysms-two pulmonary artery pseudoaneurysms, one pancreaticoduodenal arcade pseudoaneurysm, and one internal iliac artery aneurysm-deemed unsuitable for conventional embolization because of abnormal blood flow, coagulopathy, or anatomical complexity were embolized with our technique.

Background: Pseudoaneurysm after coarctation of the aorta (CoA) repair is a rare but severe complication. Contributing factors may include infection, hypertension, aortic wall weakness, and turbulent blood flow at the repair site.
Case Presentation: A 35-year-old male presented with recurrent episodes of epistaxis and dizziness was admitted to the emergency department.

Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Nihon University Hospital, Itabashi-ku, Tokyo, Japan.
We investigated the influence of false lumen (FL) status on the systemic inflammatory response triggered by acute aortic dissection (AAD) using cytokine profiling. The study included 44 patients with AAD. Patients were divided between those with a thrombosed FL (Group T, n = 21) and those with a non-thrombosed FL (Group P, n = 23).

Introduction: Arterio-enteric fistula is one of the extremely rare complications of penetrating trauma.
Case Presentation: A 27-year-old male presented to the emergency department with a gunshot to the right buttock. Initial assessments revealed a left femoral shaft fracture, the right buttock as the bullet inlet and the medial portion of the left thigh as an outlet, with no other significant findings.
Bronchial artery pseudoaneurysm presenting with hemoptysis and hemothorax after pulmonary lobectomy: a case report and literature review.
J Cardiothorac Surg
December 2024
Department of Thoracic Surgery, The Second Hospital of Jilin University, Changchun, Jilin, 130041, PR China.
Background: Bronchial artery pseudoaneurysm is a rare vascular disorder, and cases of bronchial pseudoaneurysms reported after lung surgery are even rarer. The number of reported cases is very limited due to the unclear pathogenesis, lack of diagnostic criteria and treatment guidelines, and nonspecific clinical manifestations.
Case Presentation: The paper reports a case of a patient with primary lung adenocarcinoma who developed hemoptysis, chest and back pain, and right hemothorax after lobectomy.
