This condition is primarily caused by vessel wall erosion and rupture of pseudoaneurysms (PSAs). However, SAP cases involving multiple sequential arterial hemorrhages are extremely rare.

The maximum blood loss was 1,500 mL. In each of the instances, digital subtraction angiography (DSA) embolization was carried out after the bleeding source had been verified.
