Open publisher page 2 citations

Abstract

In this paper,five cases of serious epistaxis treated with digital subtraction angiographic embolization were reported.In 3 cases,bilateral maxillary arteries had been embolized and in 1 case,single lateral maxillary artery and facial artery had been embolized.Bleeding in all cases were controlled after operation.Arterial embolization was a effective,safe and simple method to treat serious epistaxis.Its advantage,adaptation,embolization material,operation methods,complication and preventive methods was discussed.
