Iliac bone biopsy complicated by hematoma: Hemostasis achieved with glue injection

Serious hemorrhage after a bone biopsy is a rare complication of the procedure. Due to the infrequency of this complication, there is limited literature available regarding the treatment. Here, we present a case of a 70-year-old male who developed a symptomatic gluteal hematoma after an iliac bone l...

description Serious hemorrhage after a bone biopsy is a rare complication of the procedure. Due to the infrequency of this complication, there is limited literature available regarding the treatment. Here, we present a case of a 70-year-old male who developed a symptomatic gluteal hematoma after an iliac bone lesion biopsy. Hemostasis was achieved by injecting an N-butyl cyanoacrylate glue solution into the bone cannulation site under CT-guidance. Keywords: Iliac bone biopsy, Gluteal hematoma, NBCA glue
