Description

Hemangioma in the nasal cavity is rarely reported. We report a case of a 50 year old female who visited the Department of Otorhinolaryngology at Nagoya Memorial Hospital complaining of nasal bleeding.<BR>Although we did a biopsy before the surgery, we could not confirm that the tumor was a hemangioma because a large part of the tumor only showed necrosis on pathology. Malignancy was suspected before surgery, and the surgery was done for pathologic confirmation, and possible removal of the tumor. Fortunately, there was little bleeding during the surgery and the pathologic diagnosis showed hemangioma. In general, we must be very cautious with surgery of hemangiomas because of the risk of severe bleeding.
