Objective To investigate the clinical effects,complications and cautions for transcatheter supperselective internal maxillary artery and facial artery embolization for treatment of intractable epistaxis.Methods Eight patients with intractable epistaxis underwent transcatheter supperselective internal maxillary artery and facial artery embolization.Results Immediate hemostasis was obtained in all patients,while varying degrees of headache were observed,but no serious complications occurred.Conclusion Transcatheter supperselective internal maxillary artery and facial artery embolization is a safe,effective method for the treatment of intractable epistaxis.
