Abstract
Management of epistaxis is directly related to the site of the bleeding. The introduction of multi-angled rigid nasal endoscopes has refined the diagnostic capabilities of various conditions affecting nose and sinuses. The posterior epistaxis presents significant greater problems as bleeding is severe and treated with conventional packing can lead to increased morbidity and life-threatening complications. The precise location of a bleeding point with an endoscope has revolutionized the management of these difficult emergencies.
