M Babu Manohar1, J F Sharp, A P Johnson.   

Abstract

Uncontrolled epistaxis may require a long hospital stay, multiple blood transfusions and multiple arterial ligations. This case report highlights vertebro-carotid anastomosis as a rare cause of uncontrolled epistaxis. The importance of angiography in the identification of rare arterial anastomoses is stressed.
