Endovascular and surgical associated treatment of post-traumatic epistaxis
Journal Title: Otolaryngologia Polska - Year 2008, Vol 62, Issue 3
Abstract
We report on two cases of patients, in whom endovascular embolization of the maxillary artery and next surgical ligation of the anterior ethmoidal artery was performed due to posttraumatic intracrable epistaxis. In those patients, conservative treatment failed, hence endovascular embolization was made. Due to persisted bleeding, right anterior ethmoidal artery were surgically ligated in both patients. After the procedures, bleeding completely stopped.
