Description
Ahmed Chaabouni and five co-authors report a rare bleeding case in a 2026 paper. A 66-year-old man had a blood disorder that stops platelets from clumping, plus a cluster of small vessel growths in his bladder. He arrived with heavy blood in his urine, trapped clots, and severe anemia. Scans could not pick out the small growths, but tissue study proved what they were.
Blood products, a clotting drug, and burning the spots through a scope all failed to hold back the bleeding. More surgery looked too risky for a man whose blood barely clots. Doctors instead threaded a tiny tube into the bladder's artery and blocked it with care, sparing nearby flow. The bleeding stopped for good, with no harms and no return over six months of checks.
