Swedish term

stora kärlen, legeras

Swedish to English Medical surgical operation
Får lätt blödning ifån stora kärlen, dessa legeras

I guess 'stora kärlen' is normally 'major arteries', but I'm not sure about 'slight bleeding from major arteries'.
All I can find for 'legeras' is alloy! Maybe this means stent?

Thank you in advance

major vessels, ???

1. Not only from, but also to, the heart! I am sure about "major vessels".

2. "legeras" beats me! Only found one relevant reference (http://www.klinvet.ki.se/on/Spec.skrivn/1990.htm) and it did not healp me!
