We describe a case of internal iliac artery pseudoaneurysm in a 38-year-old woman with postpartum hemorrhage following uterine artery ligation and uterine rupture repair. A 38-year-old female without any comorbid conditions or diseases who had previously given birth with a normal vaginal delivery was admitted to an external healthcare center with pain. The patient presented to our hospital on the 7th postoperative day with abdominal and side pain. We diagnosed the patient with ultrasonography and CT-angiogram imaging and she was treated with selective embolization. On the second day following the procedure, a regression in the previously identified hydronephrosis was observed using renal ultrasonography. The patient was discharged on the 14th day of hospitalization when she was clinically stable. Patients presenting with abdominal pain and hemorrhage after cesarean sections should be carefully evaluated for the possibility of uncommon complications, especially pseudoaneurysms, preferably with a multidisciplinary approach.

Herein, we present a case report of post-TURP (transurethral resection of prostate) recurrent severe hematuria due to right internal iliac artery pseudoaneurysm protruding into bladder lumen. A 60-year-old male presented with recurrent massive hematuria following TURP done elsewhere 15 days before. His hemoglobin was 4 gm/dL after 13 units of blood transfusion and repeated clot evacuations. His blood urea, serum creatinine, and coagulation profile studies were normal. Ultrasonography of abdomen showed multiple clots in the bladder. Cystoscopy revealed clots with a right posterolateral wall unhealthy area. After stabilizing the patient, contrast enhanced CT urography revealed intravesical aneurysm. CT angiography showed pseudoaneurysm of a branch of internal iliac artery protruding into urinary bladder lumen. We referred patient to selective embolization of the lesion but the procedure was unsuccessful. At last, ipsilateral internal iliac artery ligation relieved hematuria. But on postoperative day 2, patient suddenly collapsed and deceased, presumably due to cardiomorbidities.

Anastomotic site pseudoaneurysm following renal transplantation is a rare vascular complication. Its etiology include defective suture techniques and infections. The clinical presentation includes allograft dysfunction, local mass effect, exsanguination, and rupture. Open surgical repair is associated with significant morbidity and allograft dysfunction. Endovascular stent-graft can be a less invasive, alternative approach. We describe a case of large pseudoaneurysm arising from the internal iliac artery in a post-renal transplant patient. It was successfully treated with the stent-graft. The externally compressed right common iliac vein was also treated with a self-expanding non-graft stent. Thus, endovascular approach can be an effective alternative to open repair for post-renal transplant iliac artery pseudoaneurysm.
