Summary

Epistaxis is a very frequent emergency among adults and often needs specialised treatment in an ENT-department.

To evaluate whether or not this is the case, the investigators examined the carotid intima media thickness via ultrasound in patients who were treated in the ENT-department of the University Hospital of Zurich.
