Nasal Lobular Capillary Hemangioma

Abstract: Nasal lobular capillary hemangioma is a rare benign tumor of the paranasal sinuses. This lesion is believed to grow rapidly in size over time. The exact etiopathogenesis is still a dilemma. We discuss a case of nasal lobular capillary hemangioma presenting with a history of epistaxis. Contrast enhanced computed tomography of paranasal sinuses revealed an intensely enhancing soft-tissue mass in the left nasal cavity and left middle and inferior meati with no obvious bony remodeling or destruction. We present im… Show more

“…Pregnancy-related nasal lobular capillary haemangioma may self-resolve following childbirth, though surgery may be required for postpartum lesions that do not completely resolve. The etiology of the lesion in the patient described above may also be pregnancy-related [30]. The case is reported since this condition has a high potential for misdiagnosis, and to highlight the advantage of nasal endoscopes in diagnosis and treatment.…”

“…Según algunos autores, los síntomas más comunes son la epistaxis, en alrededor del 92%, y protrusión de la lesión hacia el exterior produciendo obstrucción nasal, no encontrándose molestias de dolor (14,15). Nuestro caso presentó epistaxis y obstrucción como principales molestias.…”

“…In the pediatric age group, the mean age of onset is 6.7 years; with 42% of cases occur by 5 years of age [6]. In the adult population, the incidence peaks in the third decade of life [6,10]. Pyogenic granuloma, especially on the gingiva, occurs in approximately 2 to 5% of pregnancies, usually in the second or third trimester [11,12].…”

“…Lesions are slightly more common on the maxillary gingiva than the mandibular gingiva, anterior areas than posterior areas, and facial aspect of the gingiva than the lingual or palatal aspect [20]. Nasal pyogenic granulomas generally arise from the nasal septum and/or from turbinates on the roof of the nasal cavity, or in the maxillary sinus [10]. Pyogenic granulomas rarely occur in the gastrointestinal tract, trachea, urinary bladder, and central nervous system [19,22].…”
