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-yearold male presented with recurrent
massive hematuria following TURP done elsewhere 15 days before. His hemoglobin
was 4gm/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
pseudo aneurysm. CT angiography showed pseudo aneurysm 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.Author (s) Details
