Timely identification and treatment of uterine artery pseudoaneurysm after hysteroscopic procedures.

Uterine artery pseudoaneurysm (UAP) is a rare but potentially life-threatening complication that can occur following hysteroscopic surgery for endometrial polyp resection. This article discusses the case study by Kakinuma , which highlights the successful diagnosis and treatment of UAP in a 48-year-old primiparous woman. Utilizing advanced imaging techniques such as ultrasound and computed tomography (CT), the medical team was able to promptly identify the UAP and subsequently perform a uterine artery embolization to treat the condition. The study underscores the critical need for rapid diagnosis and intervention to prevent severe outcomes and provides practical clinical recommendations for managing similar cases. This article aims to expand on the study's findings, discuss the clinical implications, and suggest future research directions to optimize the management of UAP post-hysteroscopic surgery.
