“…Moreover, other predisposing factors for epistaxis, namely conditions such as diabetes mellitus, allergic rhinitis, hypertensive crisis, use of anticoagulants and higher age [7, 30, 32, 33] must be considered prior to imaging. A correlation between epistaxis and the use of anticoagulants has been reported by various previous studies [9, 3437] and is also associated with RE [38]. Therefore, we presume that these risk factors also should be taken into consideration to decide, whether medical imaging in addition to rhinoscopy is necessary.…”

Lebensjahr – und gilt als eng verknüpft mit verschiedenen Komorbiditäten und der Einnahme von Medikamenten, insbesondere Thrombozytenaggregations- und Gerinnungshemmern [ 2 4 ]. Außerdem wird ein saisonal gehäuftes Auftreten vermutet.…”
