Abstract
This report highlights the use of novel endovascular techniques in a 68-year-old male patient with massive hematemesis from a recurrent secondary aorto-enteric fistula (SAEF). With a prior history of infrarenal aortic ligation and the location of the SAEF being at the aortic sac, we explain the considerations for the techniques used and how we were able to stop the bleeding using percutaneous transarterial embolotherapy.
