Figure 1 (A) Color Doppler ultrasound showed a swirling blood flow pattern within echogenic material in the uterine cavity (surrounded by arrows). This lesion was connected to the left uterine artery by a narrow neck (curved arrow). (B) Sagittal T2-weighted MRI of the pelvis. The signal void area (arrow) was from turbulent flow within the pseudoaneurysm. (C) Selective left uterine arteriogram. The arteriogram reflected a narrow neck to the pseudoaneurysm (arrows). (D) Follow-up transvaginal color Doppler ultrasound of the uterus. Complete resolution of the pseudoaneurysm was noted.
