Combined the big data from Chinese researches and our clinical experiences, we drew a concise "distributed map" of intractable epistaxis showing the concealed bleeding regions and offending vessels clearly (Figure 1). The bleeding site was located accurately according to the "distributed map," and bleeding was stopped via bipolar radiofrequency ablation under nasal endoscope without nasal packing, followed by five classic cases (Figure 2). It is our recommended precise mode of diagnosis and treatment of refractory epistaxis.

Endovascular arterial embolization versus conservative management with nasal packing alone for severe epistaxis: a nationwide cohort study.
J Neurointerv Surg
December 2024
Interventional Neuroradiology, University of Maryland, College Park, Maryland, USA
Background: Endovascular arterial embolization (EAE) is an effective treatment for severe epistaxis refractory to conservative management with nasal packing. However, contemporary real-world data are lacking, as are data on head-to-head comparisons of EAE versus nasal packing alone.
Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study of the Nationwide Readmissions Database (NRD) from 2016 to 2021 in the United States.
COVID-19-Associated Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura in a Hemodialysis Patient.
J Blood Med

Background: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) infection has been a global threat since the end of 2019. Although the main clinical manifestation of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is respiratory, its range of clinical manifestation is extensive and may include various systems, including hematological disorders, such as lymphopenia, thrombotic events, thrombocytopenia and immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). The present case was the first one that aimed to raise awareness of ITP induced by COVID-19 in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis.

Background: Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is a bleeding disorder characterized by arteriovenous malformations, commonly presenting with epistaxis and gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding. Bleeding symptoms may be difficult to manage and may become life-threatening, with many patients developing dependence on parenteral iron and/or blood transfusion. There is a growing body of evidence that antiangiogenic therapies may be effective in management of bleeding symptoms, presumably targeting pathogenic HHT pathways such as vascular endothelial growth factor receptor.

Article Synopsis
- Fanconi anemia (FA) is a rare genetic disorder causing bone marrow failure and a higher cancer risk, where autoimmune issues like immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) are quite uncommon.
- A case report details a six-year-old boy with FA who developed severe ITP, presenting challenges in management due to extremely low platelet counts and spontaneous bruising.
- Treatment included intravenous immunoglobulin and corticosteroids, which initially helped, but he ultimately responded well to rituximab, leading to improved platelet counts and a stable condition at follow-up.
Outpatient management of pediatric epistaxis: A cost analysis and clinical model.
Laryngoscope Investig Otolaryngol
October 2024
Objectives: Pediatric epistaxis is a common, often non-operative condition encountered by Otolaryngologists. The present study seeks to (1) describe our outcomes of epistaxis management, (2) estimate the associated healthcare burden, and (3) propose a clinical model to optimize care coordination with primary care and advanced practice providers.
Methods: Retrospective case series of pediatric patients treated outpatient for epistaxis by a single otolaryngologist from 2021 to 2022.
