Internal iliac arteries were ligated in 15 cases of extensive cancer of the urinary bladder to arrest persistent bleeding. A stable effect was obtained in 8 cases only. The procedure of maintenance of a permanent catheter in the visceral part of internal iliac artery suggested by the authors was successively used to stimulate hemostatic effect in the remaining 5 cases. The procedure was carried out in conjunction with intraarterial injection of hemostatic agents.
