Hematidrosis – review of literature, clinical observation

https://doi.org/10.47360/1995-4484-2022-118-122

Abstract

Hematidrosis is a rare disease. Isolated cases are described in the literature, which makes it impossible to study the etiology and pathogenesis of the disease. The most convincing are the assumptions about the role of emotional stress in the clinical manifestations of the disease. The author presents his own 2-year observation of a girl who periodically had bleeding from the nose and ear canal.
