“…Aneurysms in the pediatric population are very rare. Moreover, there are just a few case reports regarding iliac aneurysms 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. Based on autopsy series in adults, the incidence of isolated iliac artery aneurysms is approximately 0.03% 9 .…”

Arterial aneurysms are very rare in children, with iliac aneurysms being even more uncommon. We report the case of a 61-day-old girl with a right common iliac artery aneurysm that was an incidental finding on the third day of life. The aneurysm was treated by direct aneurysm puncture and endovascular coil embolization. The patient was discharged with no complications, and complete exclusion of the aneurysm was confirmed on the 3-month follow-up examination.

“…Therefore, selective arterial embolization (SAE) is increasingly preferred as a therapeutic procedure for controlling hemorrhage, normally in adults. Furthermore, SAE is applied increasingly in conditions, such as hemorrhage, arterio-venous malformation, arteriovenous fistula, aneurysm and tumors6-9). However, SAE is performed less frequently in pediatric patients.…”

Selective embolization of the internal iliac arteries for the treatment of intractable hemorrhage in children with malignancies

PurposeAcute internal hemorrhage is an occasionally life-threatening complication in pediatric cancer patients. Many therapeutic approaches have been used to control bleeding with various degrees of success. In this study, we evaluated the efficacy of selective internal iliac artery embolization for controlling acute intractable bleeding in children with malignancies.MethodsWe retrospectively evaluated the cases of 6 children with various malignancies (acute lymphoblastic leukemia, acute myelogenous leukemia, chronic myelogenous leukemia, T-cell prolymphocytic leukemia, Langerhans cell histiocytosis, and rhabdomyosarcoma), who had undergone selective arterial embolization (SAE) of the internal iliac artery at the Chonnam National University Hwasun Hospital between January 2004 and December 2009. SAE was performed by an interventional radiologist using Gelfoam® and/or Tornado® coils.ResultsThe patients were 5 boys and 1 girl with median age of 6.9 years (range, 0.7-14.8 years) at the time of SAE. SAE was performed once in 4 patients and twice in 2, and the procedure was unilateral in 2 and bilateral in 4. The causes of hemorrhage were as follows: hemorrhagic cystitis (HC) in 3 patients, procedure-related internal iliac artery injuries in 2 patients, and tumor rupture in 1 patient. Initial attempt at conservative management was unsuccessful. Of the 6 patients, 5 (83.3%) showed improvement after SAE without complications.ConclusionSAE may be a safe and effective procedure for controlling acute intractable hemorrhage in pediatric malignancy patients. This procedure may obviate the need for surgery, which carries an attendant risk of morbidity and mortality in cancer patients with critical conditions.
