    Area of Science:

    • Interventional Radiology
    • Vascular Surgery

    Context:

    • Embolization is an established procedure for managing various hemorrhages.
    • Lariboisière Hospital data provides insights into embolization outcomes.
    • A significant cohort of 1200 patients underwent embolization, with 212 treated for hemostasis.

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of embolization in achieving hemostasis across different types of hemorrhages.
    • To analyze the topographical distribution of embolized hemorrhages.
    • To assess the benefits of embolization in acute, pre-operative, and chronic bleeding scenarios.

    Summary:

    • Embolization successfully achieved hemostasis in 212 out of 1200 patients.
    • Hemorrhages in the cervico-cephalic region were most common (91 cases), but embolization is applicable body-wide.
    • The procedure demonstrated effectiveness in acute (52 cases), pre-operative (48 cases), and chronic (112 cases) bleeding.
    • Acute embolization offers an alternative to arterial ligation, while pre-operative embolization facilitates surgery for vascular lesions.
    • Chronic bleeding management via embolization provides significant patient relief and life-saving outcomes when other treatments fail.

    Impact:

    • Embolization provides a versatile and effective method for hemorrhage control.
    • The study highlights embolization's role in improving surgical conditions and offering last-resort treatments.
    • Findings support the continued use and potential expansion of embolization techniques in clinical practice.
