case_images: Pelvic aortography before embolization.. A) Pelvic aortography reveals the right-sided location of the kidney within the pelvis (asterisk) while visualizing blood flow from the right internal iliac artery (arrow).. B) In the later phase of pelvic angiography, the right external iliac artery provides blood flow to the right uterine artery (arrowhead).

case_images: Pelvic angiography revealed that the left internal iliac artery provided blood flow to the transplanted renal artery, whereas collateral circulation from the right external iliac artery supplied blood to the right uterine artery (Fig. 1).
case_images: Angiography reveals the uterus being perfused by a branch vessel stemming from the left internal iliac artery.. A) Selective angiography from the left uterine artery. B) Angiography conducted after the embolization of the left uterine artery confirms the presence of blood flow to the uterus originating from a branch of the inferior gluteal artery. C) Selective angiography of the lateral sacral artery additionally confirms the presence of blood flow to the uterus.

case_images: The left uterine artery was selectively catheterized and embolized with a gelatin sponge (Fig. 2A). Additionally, the feeding vessels connected to the uterus, which originated from branches of the inferior gluteal and lateral sacral arteries (Fig. 2B and C), were meticulously identified and subsequently embolized.
