A Novel Use of Aortic Stent Graft Components in Massive Venous Retroperitoneal Hematoma

Open Access
|Apr 2018

Abstract

Venous retroperitoneal hematoma (VRH) can present as a sudden-onset life-threatening condition. Unlike arterial hematoma, VRH is difficult to treat because of anatomic and structural considerations. Moreover, because VRH is rare and iatrogenic, there are no commercially available devices to treat this problem. We present a novel use of aortic stent graft components to treat a large, life-threatening VRH.
