Title: Venous Thromboembolism After Uterine Fibroid Embolization

Journal Article · · Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiology

Thromboembolic complications after uterine fibroid embolization (UFE) are infrequent. The incidence and predisposing factors of thromboembolism after UFE are unknown. We present eight cases of nonfatal thromboembolic complications after UFE and estimate the frequency of such events as 0.4%.
