Nasal endoscopy-evaluation in epistaxis.

Epistaxis is generally of two types : one where a cause is recognised ( Local or Systemic ) and the other where the cause is not known. All cases of nose bleeds with no evident cause is customarily categorised into an Idiopathic type. Anterior rhinoscopy ordinarily gives a very limited view of the nose and the probable cause of epistaxis, and this, we feel could he one of the reasons why a proper diagnosis is not always likely. Another problem is the poor localisation of the site of bleeding point. Such cases pose a problem in implementing treatment, as the cause or the site is not easily located. This study tries to venture the exquisite and wide vision provided by the Nasal endoscope. This study also tries to investigate the possibility of reaching the inaccessible bleeding points, to treat them directly. The study was conducted on 60 patients who attended the Out Patient Department and the Indoor ward with complaints of Epistaxis.
