Resumo

Paciente de 16 anos do sexo masculino sofreu trauma pélvico fechado, seguido de formação de abscesso do músculo psoas e outras complicações infecciosas. Submetido a drenagem do abscesso retroperitonial onde foi encontrado extenso sangramento. A hemorragia foi contida com compressas. Após abordagem endovascular por embolização dos ramos da artéria hipogástrica, houve cessação da hemorragia, as compressas foram retiradas e o paciente recebeu alta do hospital sem complicações.

Abstract

A 16-year-old male patient sustained pelvic blunt trauma followed by an abscess formation of the psoas muscle and other infectious complications. Open drainage of the retroperitoneal abscess resulted in massive hemorrhage that was temporarily controlled by packing. After endovascular treatment by embolization of branches of the hypogastric artery, the hemorrhage was definitively controlled. Packs were removed and the patient was discharged with no further complications.
