Abstract:
Two different management strategies were applied prospectively and consecutively for 12 months each for epistaxes requiring hospital admission. Patients who did not respond to 48 h nasal packing were treated more successfully and more economically by submucous resection of the nasal septum than by delayed arterial ligation.
