ObjectivesThe authors present the guidelines of the French Oto-Rhino-Laryngology – Head and Neck Surgery Society (Société Française d'Oto-Rhino-Laryngologie et de Chirurgie de la Face et du Cou: SFORL) on second-line treatment of epistaxis in adults, after failure of anterior and/or anterior–posterior nasal packing.MethodsA multidisciplinary work group was entrusted with a review of the scientific literature on the above topic. Guidelines were drawn up, based on the articles retrieved and the group members' individual experience. They were then read over by an editorial group independent of the work group. The final version was established in a coordination meeting. The guidelines were graded as A, B, C or expert opinion, by decreasing level of evidence.ResultsArterial embolization should be performed by an experienced interventional neuroradiologist with adequate technical facilities, to reduce the risk of complications. Cerebral and supra-aortic vessel CT angiography should be performed in case of post-traumatic epistaxis with suspected internal carotid injury. In case of persistent bleeding despite endoscopic hemostasis of the sphenopalatine artery, anterior ethmoidal artery hemostasis should be performed via a medial canthal incision, with endoscopic assistance as needed. In case of persistent epistaxis despite the usual surgical and neuroradiological procedures, surgical exploration of the sinonasal cavities should be performed, with elective coagulation in case of bleeding from secondary branches, and/or ethmoidectomy in case of diffuse bleeding. A decision-tree was drawn up for the management of second-line treatment of epistaxis.
