Abstract

SUMMARY
Acute bleeding tumor in the head and neck can lead to significant morbidity and mortality without appropriate treatment. Estimates of the incidence of bleeding range between 6 and 14% of patients with advanced cancer, and is the immediate cause of death in around 6% of cases. Previously, acute bleeding tumor not responding to medical therapy, surgery is the first choice. In recent years, interventional radiology has a more important position in the treatment. We report three cases cases of acute bleeding has been successfully treated at
Friendship Hospital as examples presenting the role of interventional radiology in the management of acute bleeding tumors.
