Pelvic angioembolization (AE) is a mainstay in the treatment algorithm for pelvic hemorrhage from pelvic fractures. Nonselective AE refers to embolization of the bilateral internal iliac arteries (IIAs) proximally rather than embolization of their tributaries distally. The aim of this study was to q...
