Severe epistaxis often requires advanced treatment. Selective embolization of the external carotid artery territory effectively manages intractable posterior nosebleeds, as shown in three successful patient cases.

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Vascular Interventional Radiology

Background:

  • Epistaxis (nosebleed) is a frequent otolaryngologic emergency.
  • While conservative measures suffice for many cases, severe or refractory epistaxis necessitates aggressive interventions with potential systemic effects.

Observation:

  • This report details three patients with severe epistaxis.
  • These cases involved intractable posterior nosebleeds requiring advanced management.

Findings:

  • Selective embolization of the external carotid artery territory proved to be an effective treatment strategy.
  • All three patients with severe epistaxis were successfully managed using this interventional radiology technique.

Implications:

  • Selective embolization offers a viable and effective therapeutic option for intractable posterior epistaxis.

  • This approach may reduce the need for more invasive surgical procedures in managing severe nosebleeds.
