Fascial Pathways of Extravasation of Blood in Lower Abdomen Following Angiography-Anatomic and Clinical Correlation

The extravasation of urine following traumatic rupture of the urethra or periurethral abscess is well known to clinicians. The extravasation of blood following angiography, in the same anatomical space, is rare. Extravasation of fluids in the lower abdomen, groin and external genitalia follows disti...

Description
Summary:The extravasation of urine following traumatic rupture of the urethra or periurethral abscess is well known to clinicians. The extravasation of blood following angiography, in the same anatomical space, is rare. Extravasation of fluids in the lower abdomen, groin and external genitalia follows distinct anatomical pathways. This case illustrates the anatomical pathways and emphasizes their clinical importance.
