Iatrogenic pseudoaneurysm after bone biopsy managed with endovascular coil embolisation

Bone marrow biopsy (BMB) is a routinely performed procedure, with the preferred site being the posterior superior iliac crest. Uncommonly, it may be complicated by haemorrhagic complications, especially in patients with coagulopathy. Here, we present a case of pelvic haematoma following a BMB due to the injury of the right internal iliac artery. Endovascular embolisation was performed on an urgent basis to manage this complication. The bleeding stopped following the embolisation.

Abstract

Bone marrow biopsy (BMB) is a routinely performed procedure, with the preferred site being the posterior superior iliac crest. Uncommonly, it may be complicated by haemorrhagic complications, especially in patients with coagulopathy. Here, we present a case of pelvic haematoma following a BMB due to the injury of the right internal iliac artery. Endovascular embolisation was performed on an urgent basis to manage this complication. The bleeding stopped following the embolisation.
