Nasal angiofibroma with cystic degeneration � a rare case report

Dr Manas Ranjan Rout, Dr M Harini

Abstract :

 Nasal angiofioma is a rare case in ENT and its complication like cystic degeneration is also very uncommon. A 60 year old female patient came to ENT out patient department with complaints of nasal obstruction since 3 days, nasal discharge since 3 days and pain in the nose since 3 days. There was history of intermittent nasal obstruction since 5 months. On examination a big firm smooth mass was visible in the right nasal cavity with mucopurulent secretions. When we tried to clean the secretion with suction a gauss of fluid came out from the mass. Then nasal obstruction was partially relieved. We did CT scan to identify the root of the origin. We excised the tumor and sent for histopathological study. Intra operatively mass was originating from the middle turbinate. The H.P report came as angiofioma. We are reporting this case for its rare occurrence.
