| Descrição e Informações Adicionais(en) | Introduction: Epistaxis is one of the most common otorhinolaryngological emergencies. Severe epistaxis, which is life-threatening and requires urgent treatment, is less common, occurring in about 4% of cases. Objective: Report a case of difficult-to-control epistaxis Resumed report: A 45-year-old man, hypertensive, arrived at the emergency of our service with an important epistaxis, difficult to control, and anterior and posterior tamponade was performed, without bleeding improvement, and the cauterization of the sphenopalatine artery was performed with control of the bleeding. Four days later the patient presented epistaxis, requiring the cauterization of the left anterior ethmoidal artery. The patient evolved well and was discharged nine days later with epistaxis. He underwent a new cauterization of the sphenopalatine artery and distal branches, and the bleeding ceased. During the hospitalization, he bled again, requiring a blood transfusion and a new approach, in which the bleeding was found in the area called S-point and cauterized. The patient progresses well, being discharged home and referred for outpatient follow-up. Conclusion: Severe epistaxis usually comes from the posterior circulation, although in almost half of the cases the site responsible for bleeding is not identified. The upper portion of the nasal septum, more specifically the projection of the axilla of the middle concha, has been considered an important source of bleeding in severe epistaxis. The S-point is not a site that is routinely checked for bleeding, and its revision was important for a correct diagnosis and treatment of the cause of epistaxis. |
