Epistaxis: The role of arterial embolization.

Diagnostic and Interventional Imaging, 2015
Epistaxis is defined as flow of blood from the nasal fossae and is a common and benign disorder in the great majority of cases which does not require medical care. It may however become a genuine medical or surgical emergency because of the amount, repeated episodes or patient's medical vulnerability (such as coronary artery disease patients ...

Association of pelvic fracture patterns, pelvic binder use and arterial angio-embolization with transfusion requirements and mortality rates; a 7-year retrospective cohort study

BMC Surgery, 2017
Background Pelvic fractures are severe injuries with frequently associated multi-system trauma and a high mortality rate. The value of the pelvic fracture pattern for predicting transfusion requirements and mortality is not entirely clear.
