[Treatment of epistaxis in Rendu-Osler disease by intramucosal injection of ethibloc].

: The authors relate their one-year experience in percutaneous embolization of 12 patients presenting with severe epistaxis because of a Rendu Osler disease. Using Ethibloc a sclerosing substance derived from maize in direct intramucosal injection seems to be a promising technique. Ethibloc is still used successfully in percutaneous treatment of superficial venous angiomas.
