Evaluation of Short-term and Long-term Complications after Emergent Internal Iliac Artery Embolization in Patients with Pelvic Trauma

IIA embolization is an important means of controlling pelvic arterial hemorrhage. There is no significant increase in the risk of most evaluated long- and short-term complications in trauma patients who underwent IIA embolization versus those who did not. However, IIA embolization is associated with a marginally significantly increased rate of buttock, thigh, or perineal paresthesia.
