Abstract
Acute hemorrhage following pelvic reconstructive surgery is a complication requiring immediate evaluation and treatment. Therapeutic options include fluid resuscitation, tamponade techniques, exploratory surgical intervention, and, more recently, pelvic vessel embolization. New approaches to pelvic organ prolapse have been evolving rapidly with little reported on safety and efficacy. We present a 77-year-old female who had a life-threatening acute pelvic hemorrhage from an anterior Prolift procedure successfully treated with pelvic artery embolization.
