Abstract
A case of successful arterial embolization following hysterectomy and bilateral internal iliac artery ligation for intractable primary post partum haemorrhage is described. The selected artery was a branch of the inferior epigastric artery. Little has been written to date in the radiological literature about embolization via pelvic collateral vessels following arterial ligation. Although there is a good argument for postponing surgery until transcatheter embolization has been attempted, this case demonstrates that embolization can still be successful even when performed following surgery.
