  • Title: Intractable epistaxis secondary to a post-traumatic pseudoaneurysm.
    Author: Mann GS, Philip R, Balachandran A.
    Journal: Med J Malaysia; 2005 Aug; 60(3):367-9. PubMed ID: 16379195.
    Abstract:
    Epistaxis is a common problem encountered in clinical practice. It is usually self-limiting and is usually controlled with conservative measures such as nasal compression or ice-packs. Occasionally nasal packing is required. It is rarely severe enough that surgical intervention is warranted. The following report illustrates a patient who presented to us with a rare cause of life-threatening epistaxis that is, a post-traumatic pseudoaneurysm who finally required surgical intervention to control the bleeding.
