Computed tomography imaging of resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA): pearls and pitfalls

Abstract: Resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) is performed in patients with hemorrhagic shock who develop massive subdiaphragmatic bleeding. This procedure enables rapid and less invasive aortic blockade compared to resuscitative thoracotomy and aortic cross-clamp procedures. However, the REBOA procedure is often blindly performed in the emergency department without fluoroscopy, and the appropriateness of the procedure may be evaluated on computed tomography (CT) after REBOA. Therefore, rad… Show more

“…Furthermore, it should be noted that contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) may not demonstrate the extravasation of contrast medium as a result of temporary hemostasis of active bleeding by REBOA (Fig. 3 ) [ 10 , 11 ]. In particular, the flow of the contrast medium into the site of active bleeding may be slowed due to the balloon occlusion, resulting in “hidden” bleeding (Fig.…”
