Keywords: Epistaxis, nasal surgery, maxillary sinus
Abstract:
Based on anatomic experiments, the authors idealized the technique of reaching the maxillary artery through the transnasal route, with inicial opening of the maxillary sinus through its medial wall and following through the posterior wall for the exposure of the artery. Success was achieved in the control of hemorrhage in the presented cases, showing this as a fast technique, of simple execution and low morbidity.
