Overview

Case report shows successful bleeding resolution in a 30-year-old female with enhanced myometrial vascularity, suggesting a new treatment option.

Key Points

  • To explore the effectiveness of percutaneous ethanol sclerotherapy with balloon inflow occlusion in treating persistent vaginal bleeding associated with enhanced myometrial vascularity.
  • Case report of a 30-year-old female with postpartum vaginal bleeding and enhanced myometrial vascularity.
  • Underwent percutaneous ethanol sclerotherapy with balloon inflow occlusion and gelfoam embolization.
  • Follow-up at 1 month post-treatment for assessment of bleeding and vascularity.
  • Successful resolution of vaginal bleeding after treatment.
  • Normalization of uterine vascularity observed at follow-up.
  • No recurrence of bleeding reported one month post-procedure.
