Endovascular embolization (EE) has become an effective method for the treatment of intractable epistaxis (IE). However, complications such as facial pain, headaches, aphasia, hemiplegia, and transient blindness can also occur during or after surgery. In this article, we report a rare case of IE with residual intravascular guidewire after EE. Open surgery was used to remove the guidewire. However, to avoid serious complications such as massive hemorrhage, only part of the guidewire was removed.
