Abstract
- A hemangioma is a benign tumor, which occurs mostly on the skin of the head and neck, but it is relatively rare in the nasal cavity. We experienced a case of a mixed hemangioma originating from right maxillary sinus. A 14-year-old female was presented with frequent epistaxis and progressive right-sided nasal obstruction for 5 month. A physical examination revealed a large polypoid reddish mass in the right nasal cavity. After preoperative embolization, surgical resection was performed via endoscopic and canine fossa approach and the result of surgery was successful. We report this case with a review of literatures.
