Abstract

|
|
|
Isolated iliac artery aneurysm (IAA) is rare, but can be fatal. Emergency surgery is performed in cases of hemorrhagic shock due to a suddenly ruptured IAA, which may have a high mortality rate because of massive non-compressible torso hemorrhage (NCTH). Recently, resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) has been accepted as an alternative to aortic cross-clamping via open thoracotomy to achieve hemostasis in trauma patients with profound shock due to NCTH and is considered an emerging bridging therapy for damage control. However, there is limited information on the use of REBOA in non-trauma patients with shock. Herein, we describe a patient with impending cardiac arrest due to isolated ruptured IAA, in whom perioperative bleeding was successfully controlled by REBOA.
