case_images: Urgent contrast enhanced computed tomography (CT) revealed large intraperitoneal hemorrhage and contrast extravasation from biopsy site [Figure 1].
case_images: Celiac angiogram of the patient showed marked stenosis and tortuous course of the celiac trunk, common and main hepatic arteries, and the intrahepatic arteries (arrows).

case_images: Urgent trans arterial embolization via femoral artery approach attempted but failed due to marked stenosis at origin of the celiac trunk [Figure 2]. Tortuous and stenosed hepatic arteries were also noted on angiogram [Figure 2].
case_images: Gray scale sagittal ultrasound image of liver with color flow Doppler demonstrates active bleeding from the segment 5 of liver corresponding to the biopsy site (arrow).

case_images: Urgent US-guided percutaneous microwave ablation was performed after localization of active bleeding site by color Doppler US [Figure 3]. Under US guidance, microwave needle was inserted into the bleeding zone percutaneously through subcostal approach [Figure 4].
case_images: Ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation performed with microwave needle targeted at the bleeding zone at segment 5 of the liver (arrow) demonstrates post ablation changes with cessation of bleeding.
