This anatomical study has been done to determine the different segments of the hypogastric artery with it's relationships and the place in which it should be surgically ligated in emergency situations, particularly gynecologic and obstetric.

Background: Uterine fibroid embolization can be associated with significant pain due to fibroid ischemia and interventions of the procedure itself. Fentanyl and midazolam are commonly provided for sedation and pain relief, but are not tolerated by all patients. This report outlines a novel pain management strategy for uterine fibroid embolization in a patient who could not receive either opioids or benzodiazepines.

Type II endoleaks after endovascular aortic repair are a common scenario that, although infrequently, may sometimes require secondary interventions when leading to significant enlargement of the aneurysm sac. Herein, we present the perioperative and mid-term results of one of our endovascular aortic repair cases with type II endoleak from the hypogastric artery, whose ostium was covered by the prior stent graft limbs and that were successfully treated with a novel technique employing re-entry catheters in an off-label fashion. This technique may represent a valid alternative solution when conventional access between artery and prosthesis is laborious or impossible to achieve.

Background: Extending the distal sealing zone into the external iliac artery is sometimes necessary during endovascular abdominal aortic repair. As the use of an iliac branch device is contingent upon certain anatomical requirements, the application of this device is not universal. Herein, we present an alternative method to preserve hypogastric artery perfusion using a physician-modified fenestrated (PMF) AFX limb (Endologix, Inc.
