Association between ABO Blood Group and Epistaxis among Syrian Population
Background: Epistaxis is one of the most common otorhinolaryngologic emergencies in ear, nose, and throat clinics. Blood grouping is routinely done in patients with epistaxis. Objectives: To determine the association between ABO blood type and epistaxis. Methods: This retrospective study involved 260 patients with idiopathic epistaxis. Patients with risk factors for bleeding, including anticoagulant use, thrombocytopenia, hypertension, liver diseases, elevated bleeding time, low coagulation factor levels, or any benign/malignant tumor, were excluded from the study. Thus, only patients with idiopathic epistaxis were included in this study. Results: The distributions of blood groups in patients with idiopathic epistaxis were ( AB < B
