title: An innovative method of nasal chemical cautery in active anterior epistaxis.
abstract: We present a method to cauterize an actively bleeding source in anterior epistaxis. In our experience, this method is efficient, provides full control of the bleeding, and ensures precise cautery of the bleeding source with minimal usage of chemical cautery sticks.
