Sumario:Iliac vein rupture resulting from blunt trauma is rare but can be fatal and challenging to diagnose despite thorough clinical investigation and image workup. Here, we present a case of traumatic iliac vein rupture managed by emergent endovascular repair using a bare-metal stent. Low pressure traumatic venous rupture is different from arterial rupture, and a bare-metal stent can be a sufficient tool to control bleeding.
