To assess the usefulness of angiographic embolization in hemorrhage due to gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN).We conducted a retrospective analysis of data of patients with gestational trophoblastic disease within the time period 2002-2008.Eight women with GTN presented with massive hemorrhage during this time period. According to the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics Scoring system 2000, 4 of those patients had high-risk GTN. Vaginal metastasis was present in 50% of the women. All women underwent angiography, and embolization was performed in 7 of the 8 patients. One patient could not undergo embolization due to technical reasons. Two patients underwent embolization of bilateral internal iliac arteries, 4 had bilateral uterine artery embolization and 1 had bilateral uterine and hepatic artery embolization. Embolization was successful in 85.7% of the patients. All patients received chemotherapy: high-risk patients received combined regimen chemotherapy (EMA-CO), while low-risk cases received methotrexate/folinic acid regimen. Out of the 8 patients, 5 are in remission and 3 succumbed to the disease. In 2 women who tried to conceive, 1 delivered a term infant and the other had a miscarriage. The most common side effect of embolization was pain requiring parenteral analgesia.Transcatheter embolization is a safe and quick procedure and should be considered in GTN patients with acute hemorrhagic life-threatening complications.
