- The correlation between hematoma development was clinically significantly related to occurrence of pain intra-procedural, although there was not significant difference between hematoma and post-procedural pain, which may be attributed to that most hematomas were small in size and we allowed our patients to take post-procedural mild analgesics as paracetamol
- *P value < 0.005 denoted statistical significance
