Some adverse effects have been reported with TAE, such as amenorrhea, endometrial trauma, and subsequent infertility. Herein we report the efficacy and complications of emergent TAE for the management of severe intractable uterine bleeding at our institute. Methods：From 2010 to 2019, thirty-eight patients underwent emergent TAE for intractable uterine bleeding. We evaluated the efficacy and complications of TAE, including a change in menstruation, fertility, and pregnancy outcomes in perinatal patients（group A；n＝23）, and in patients with gynecologic hemor- rhage（group B；n＝15）. Results：In group A, 7 cases of retained placenta, 4 cases of postpartum hemorrhage, 2 cases of placenta accrete, 2 cases of uterine artery pseudoaneurysm, 2 cases of cervical pregnancy, 1 case of cesarean scar pregnancy, and 5 cases of unexplained hemorrhage were included.
