Massive retained products of conception with arteriovenous fistula successfully treated with arterial balloon occlusion and laparoscopic hysterectomy

Key Points

• Retention of products of conception can lead to serious complications, including significant bleeding.
• The method involved arterial balloon occlusion to manage the arteriovenous fistula effectively and laparoscopic hysterectomy.
• Evaluation of vessel imaging was critical in selecting the appropriate treatment for minimizing risks.
• This approach may enable better management of bleeding risks associated with such obstetric complications.
