The authors present the results of a study regarding 1906 cases of epistaxis admitted in the Col?ea ORL Clinic, of a total of 25,246 admitted (5.56%) between January 1, 1983-December 31, 1987. Here are presented the distribution of the cases on years of study and etiologic types, sex, age groups and sex, causes (it is remarked the dominant incidence of high blood pressure--59.24%), seasons, with a higher frequency in the cold season, frequency related to professions and the place of the nasal fossa as well as the place of the vascular break--a fore place or a hinder place. The treatment applied to the admitted patients is charted on a diagram, the authors discussing the therapeutical measures that must be applied in the cases of serious epistaxis, as well as epistaxis at patients with multiple health problems, underlining the value of the interdisciplinary collaboration. There are also discussed the infectious complications of the nasal wads and great stress is laid upon avoiding errors in therapeutical measures.
