According to our results, dilatation of the brachial artery after AV is time dependent. Higher flow in the AF seems to be the main trigger of dilatation.

The most common mechanism of pelvic fractures after blunt trauma is lateral compression of the pelvis. Most of these fractures are of slight severity but it is possible, that a life-threatening hemorrhage can appear. The inferior epigastric artery is an atypical bleeding site but it has to be considered in the search of the origin of the hemorrhage. Diagnostic tools are ultrasound, computed tomography and angiography. After external fixation of the pelvis and persistent haemodynamic active bleeding is the percutaneous transcatheter embolization (PTE) in our opinion the treatment of choice. The introduced case is confirm with this statement.

A diagnostic strategy with the combined use of FNAB and TCB increases the diagnostic yield in image-guided punctures. Even though this approach needs at least two separate punctures, the complication rate does not increase.
