Transcatheter Arterial Embolization for Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding Clinical Outcomes and Safety
Introduction Acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding remains a critical medical emergency, particularly in elderly patients and those with multiple comorbidities. While endoscopic therapy is considered the first-line approach, a subset of patients continue to bleed despite optimal intervention or present with high surgical risk. Recent interventional advances highlight transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) as a promising, minimally…

Limb Ischemia After Coil Migration Used for Hypogastric Aneurysm Embolization
Introduction Hypogastric artery aneurysms are a rare condition with a low incidence in the general population. While often asymptomatic, larger aneurysms pose significant health risks, including rupture and ischemic complications. A recent case report explores the challenges of treating such aneurysms with endovascular embolization and highlights the potential for coil migration leading to limb ischemia.…
