Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Rhinology
  • Surgical Innovation

Context:

  • Intractable epistaxis presents a significant clinical challenge.
  • Standard treatments like nasal packing are often insufficient for severe cases.
  • Accurate localization of bleeding sources is crucial for effective management.

Purpose:

  • To identify common sites of nasal bleeding in patients with intractable epistaxis.
  • To evaluate the efficacy of endoscopic techniques combined with turbinate displacement for managing difficult-to-locate bleeding points.
  • To assess the correlation between bleeding site and patient age.

Summary:

  • Retrospective analysis of 92 patients with intractable epistaxis revealed common bleeding points in the superior wall of the inferior nasal meatus (56.5%) and olfactory cleft of the nasal septum (27.2%).

  • Bleeding sites showed a correlation with age.
  • Effective hemostasis was achieved using electrocoagulation (83 cases), gelfoam packing (8 cases), and embolization (1 case), with high success rates after initial treatment.
  • Impact:

    • Endoscopic visualization combined with middle and inferior turbinate displacement offers superior visualization for deeply-sited bleeding points.
    • This combined approach provides an effective and safe method for controlling intractable epistaxis.
    • Successful management reduces patient morbidity and healthcare resource utilization.
