  • Ruptured internal iliac artery aneurysms (IIAA) are extremely rare, and the repair can be challenging. This case reports described an 83-year-old patient who presented at our Emergency Department with acute abdominal pain based on a ruptured IIAA. He refused open repair and only wanted to be treated as minimally invasive as possible. Therefore endovascular embolization of the IIAA was performed. Repeat angiography showed that the procedure was successful. Treatment of a ruptured IIAA by an emergency coiling procedure under local anesthesia has been shown to be effective in this reported case.
