Rare case of nasal angiofibroma in a female patient

In this case we report an extremely rare clinical entity of an extranasopharyngeal Angiofibroma attached to right inferior turbinate in a 23-year-old female patient who presented to our outpatient department with a nasal mass and recurrent nasal bleed. A very few cases of angiofibroma in young females are reported in the literature of otorhinolaryngology worldwide. High resolution computerized tomogram of paranasal sinuses was done. Patient underwent surgery and the specimen was sent for histopathological examination which confirmed the diagnosis of angiofibroma [Singh and Agarwal in J Clin Diagn Res, 2016].

Abstract

In this case we report an extremely rare clinical entity of an extranasopharyngeal Angiofibroma attached to right inferior turbinate in a 23-year-old female patient who presented to our outpatient department with a nasal mass and recurrent nasal bleed. A very few cases of angiofibroma in young females are reported in the literature of otorhinolaryngology worldwide. High resolution computerized tomogram of paranasal sinuses was done. Patient underwent surgery and the specimen was sent for histopathological examination which confirmed the diagnosis of angiofibroma [Singh and Agarwal in J Clin Diagn Res, 2016].
