We have introduced a method of securing a Foley's catheter in the nose, in the management of posterior epistaxis. Our method has the advantage of securing the catheter in situ, while maintaining traction on the balloon in the posterior nasal space and preventing nasal alar cartilage necrosis.
BACKGROUND
Evolution in techniques and equipment has expanded the role, effectiveness, and safety of endovascular transarterial embolization for the treatment of severe epistaxis. Risks from this treatment approach include major ischemic complications. To date, there have been only a few reports of
BACKGROUND
The treatment of epistaxis sometime requires an embolization. This may result in ischemic palate necrosis, oronasal communication and dental losses. The repair of these lesions is complex.
METHODS
A 53-year-old patient, suffering from high blood pressure and hypercholesterolemia,
Embolization of the maxillary artery (MA) is a common treatment modality for refractory epistaxis. Tissue necrosis after embolization of the MA is a rare complication. Here, we reported the first case of the development of necrosis of soft tissue and alveolar bone in the periodontium after
Superselective embolization is an effective method of treating epistaxis that is refractory to conservative treatment. Soft tissue necrosis is a rare complication owing to the extensive collateral blood supply of the head and neck. We describe the case of a patient who developed unilateral necrosis
This paper reports the case of a 50-year-old man who underwent superselective embolization after severe posterior rhinorrhagia caused by hypertension. Twelve hours after the procedure, left-sided hemiparesis and right-sided facial nerve paresis developed, followed by ulceration and necrosis of the
Foley's catheter is used for post-nasal packing in severe epistaxis. Various methods have been described for securing the catheter in position, all of which can be associated with patient discomfort, risk of alar necrosis or unsightliness. We describe a new method to secure the Foley's catheter
OBJECTIVE
To report previously unreported complications of bilateral sphenopalatine artery ligation.
METHODS
We present the case of a 45-year-old man who underwent bilateral sphenopalatine artery ligation to control intractable posterior epistaxis. After four months, he re-presented with nasal
BACKGROUND
Tamponade treatment for epistaxis is painful and traumatic to the nasal mucosa, and may necessitate hospitalization for several days. Hot-water irrigation (HWI) was introduced as a treatment of epistaxis more than 100 years ago. In a previous study the treatment proved to be effective,
The objective of the present work was to study the pathogenetic mechanisms underlying nasal bleeding (NB) in the patients presenting with arterial hypertension (AH). A total of 47 patients with AH suffering from NB were available for the examination of whom 28 experienced a single bleeding episode
To compare the outcomes of adolescent patients with recurrent anterior epistaxis (RAE) treated with either silver nitrate cauterization or microwave ablation (MWA).and methods: In this prospective, randomized study, one hundred 13-18-year-old adolescents A 14-year-old spayed American Paint mare was evaluated for mild colic, anorexia, pyrexia, and pancytopenia. Physical examination revealed mild tachycardia, tachypnea, and pale mucous membranes. Serial laboratory analyses revealed progressive pancytopenia, hyperfibrinogenemia, and hyperglobulinemia.
