Capillary Haemangioma of Nasal Septum: A Case Report

Abstract

Capillary haemangioma is a benign rapidly growing lesion characterized by a proliferation of capillaries arranged in lobules and separated by a loose connective tissue stroma, often infiltrated by inflammatory cells. Most mucosal capillary haemangioma of head and neck arise in the oral cavity, but the nasal cavity involvement is rare. The most common symptoms are unilateral epistaxis and nasal obstruction. The treatment of choice is surgery to remove the tumour even for large lesion.
