title: [Haemorrhage and haemostasis in face, visceral cranium, neck and middle ear region (author's transl)].
abstract: Head and neck surgery is accompanied by more or less heavy tendency to bleed. Spontaneous bleeding will occur, because of general and local peculiarities depending on the vascularisation of this region. The general part of the paper deals with normal haemostasis and the diagnosis of haemorrhagic diathesis. This part also shows simple surgical measures in order to stop bleeding. The special section of the paper explains bleeding problems by case history. Here mainly complications are shown exceedingly imporant to the ENT Doctor, because of their more common frequency i.e. nose-bleeding, adenotonsillextomy as well as alarming haemorrhage from great vessels of the neck (arrosion bleeding of the carotid artery, lesion due to accidents and following necksurgery).
