Core Tip
Core Tip: Kakinuma et al’s case report shows that uterine non-pregnancy-related arterial pseudoaneurysm is a relatively uncommon, but potentially life-threatening complication that could occurs after any invasive gynecological procedure. The management criteria of abdominal arterial pseudoaneurysm does not yet have a high scientific level due to the scarcity of available data, but it seems that, regardless of the associated circumstances, the pseudoaneurysm could be treated at least initially, and mainly through endovascular procedures. In the symptomatic patient that authors present, an advanced endovascular diagnostic and therapeutic procedure was successfully performed.
