Abstract
The management of severe epistaxis is discussed. Three groups of patients with severe epistaxis are studied retrospectively. The group which had early arterial ligation performed had a significantly reduced length of stay in hospital without increased risk. We conclude that early arterial ligation is the treatment of choice in severe epistaxis.Keywords
