Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the value of transcatheter arterial embolization(TAE) in the treatment of intractable epistaxis.Methods TAE using gelform or polyvinyl alcohol(PVA) particles of forty-one patients with intractable epistaxis were undertaken by the femoral artery approach,through selective catheterization of involved maxillary artery or the bleeding arteries for the stopage of bleeding..Results Of the forty-one patient,39 cases were cured by once TAE and the other 2 with recurrent bleeding on the next day after the TAE,to whom a second interventional treatment fullfilled the requirement.Conclusions Transcatheter arterial embolization is a simple,safe and effective treatment for the intractable epistaxis.
