Abstract
The incidence of maxillofacial injuries is about 10% in most major trauma centers. In patients with maxillofacial injuries, the life-threatening bleeding from the internal maxillary artery (IMA) injury is not frequent but urgent because this injury is associated with airway compromise, intracerebral hemorrhage, cervical spine injury, and massive oronasal bleeding. However, there are very few recommendations for its treatment. Here we report a case of life-threatening bleeding of bilateral IMAs in multiple facial bone fractures, which was successfully treated by endovascular treatment (EVT). Case Report
