A patient with intractable posterior epistaxis was treated with embolization of the ipsilateral sphenopalatine and facial arteries and contralateral sphenopalatine artery. She continued to bleed despite a seemingly adequate embolization procedure. A second angiogram revealed a significant collateral
Recurrent massive epistaxes due to heriditary haemorrhagic telangectasia were managed in two patients by ablation of the mucosa of the nasal and maxillary cavities and resurfacing with radial forearm fasciocutaneous free flaps. Both patients had undergone multiple procedures attempting to control
BACKGROUND
A friction force is generated when moving air contacts the nasal walls, referred to as wall shear stress. This interaction facilitates heat and mass transfer between the mucosa and air, i.e., air-conditioning. The objective of this research was to study the distribution of wall shear
In the Rendu Osler disease, epistaxis are seen in 80 to 90% of patients, and the multiple treatments that have been proposed have each shown their failure to achieve satisfactory results. We propose, in the case of abundant epistaxis, a bilateral closure of the nasal cavity. This technique has been
To review the origins of epistaxis in patients with unknown bleeding sites.This consecutive case series included 26 patients with unknown bleeding sites previously considered to have posterior epistaxis. All patients had previously been examined Extrahepatic metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is not infrequently found during the later stage, regarding that the autopsy report described its prevalence to be up to 50%. The most frequent sites are known to be the abdominal lymph nodes, lung and bone. However, metastasis to the nasal
A case of haemangiopericytoma of the nasal septum in 73-year-old female admitted to the Department of Otolaryngology of Wroclaw Medical University with a history of recurrent epistaxis and progressive right monolateral nasal respiratory obstruction is reported. On admission presented smooth,
Malignant mucosal melanoma of the nasal cavity is extremely rare. It is usually diagnosed in the elderly. We report a 78-year-old man who had symptoms of occasional episodes of epistaxis and blood-tinged sputum for about 1 month. Physical examination showed a dark-colored mass lesion over the left
Malignant neoplasms of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses are uncommon. Choriocarcinoma is a highly malignant germ cell tumour occurring in the reproductive organs. Metastasis may be principally by the lymphatic route as in other germ cell tumours but choriocarcinoma is also known to spread
A 4-year-old girl had extensive subconjunctival hemorrhage in the right eye. She had recurrent minor nosebleeds starting at 6 months. Visual acuity was 20/20. Anterior segment examination showed diffuse, blood-filled, multilobulated cystic channels in the conjunctiva. Bleeding resolved, leaving
The authors describe a case of a 14-year-old male child presenting with massive anterior epistaxis on a background of recurrent episodes of epistaxis. Immediate management constituted anterior nasal packing. Endoscopic nasal examination revealed a 5 mm purple vascular lesion anterior to the
We present a 58-year-old gentleman who initially presented to the otolaryngology clinic with new onset epistaxis revealing a palpable facial mass that was subsequently biopsied revealing metastatic renal cell carcinoma. We hope to present an interesting case highlighting the rarity of this disease
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the clinical features and management of intractable deep-seated epistaxis.
METHODS
Clinical data were analyzed retrospectively in 195 patients with intractable deep-seated epistaxis treated in Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao College between June 2008 and June 2014. The
Monotypic angiomyolipoma is usually found in the kidneys and is composed predominantly of epithelioid cells which show positivity for melanocyte and smooth muscle markers. It can pose a diagnostic challenge due to a range of differential diagnosis. We report the second case of monotypic
