Osler-Rendu-Weber syndrome is an inherited disorder characterized by mucocutaneous and visceral telangiectasia. It is often revealed by recurrent epistaxis. It is sometimes profuse and intractable. Hemostasis may be problematic.
A 61-year-old male patient presented with severe epistaxis due to Osler-Rendu-Weber syndrome. Embolization of the external carotid branches was needed for hemostasis.
Embolization of external carotid artery branches can be an effective therapeutic alternative when usual treatments fail.
奥-伦-韦综合征是一种遗传性疾病,其特征为黏膜皮肤和内脏毛细血管扩张。鼻出血反复发作常为其首发表现。有时鼻出血量大且难以控制。止血可能存在问题。
一名61岁男性患者因奥-伦-韦综合征出现严重鼻出血。为止血需要对颈外动脉分支进行栓塞。
当常规治疗无效时,颈外动脉分支栓塞可作为一种有效的治疗选择。
