Epistaxis is a condition mainly self-limiting or easily treated conservatively, although in rare cases it could become life-threatening. We discuss the case of a 73 year comorbid old woman with severe and recurrent epistaxis treated with superselective catheterism and embolization of the internal maxillary artery. The possible underlying causes, including drug related issues, are discussed.
鼻出血是一种主要为自限性或易于保守治疗的病症，尽管在罕见情况下可能会危及生命。我们讨论了一例73岁患有多种合并症的老年女性，其患有严重复发性鼻出血，接受了上颌内动脉超选择性插管和栓塞治疗。文中还讨论了可能的潜在病因，包括与药物相关的问题。
