Embolization of the internal maxillary artery is an accepted method for control of severe or recurrent posterior epistaxis. Such endovascular treatment may fail if the vascular supply to the bleeding vessels originates in branches of the ophthalmic artery. We report one case in which embolization of the ophthalmic artery was performed to control epistaxis. Distal catheterisation at least beyond the second portion enables safe embolization.
上颌内动脉栓塞术是控制严重或复发性后鼻出血的一种公认方法。如果出血血管的血供起源于眼动脉分支,这种血管内治疗可能会失败。我们报告了一例通过眼动脉栓塞术来控制鼻出血的病例。至少在第二部分以外进行远端导管插入术可实现安全栓塞。
