Abstract
|
|
|
Epistaxis is a common medical condition. Although most cases resolve spontaneously, some are complex and may
require specialist intervention, such as surgery or embolization. Here, we present a case of intractable epistaxis following a failure of arterial ligation. On investigation the epistaxis was determined to arise from a pseudoaneurysm of sphenopalatine artery and treated by embolization.
