Abstract
In the case reported, many techniques for controlling bleeding from an open pelvic fracture were employed without success. With arteriographic identification of a precise arterial bleeding point, control of hemorrhage was accomplished by proximal hypogastric artery ligation with distal intraarterial placement of a balloon catheter.Keywords
