Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2019, Vol 18, Issue 4
Abstract
Juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma(JNA) is a benign ,richly vascularised mesenchymal neoplasm. Most commonly occurs in adolescent males. It originates mostly from the posterolateral wall of the nasopharynx and extents into the surrounding tissue. Extranasopharyngeal angiofibroma(ENA) is an uncommon tumor with only 65 cases being reported in world literature, in which maxillary sinus is the common site and nasal septum is found to be an extremely rare site. Here we report a case of 15 year old male patient with extranasopharyngeal angiofibroma arising from nasal septum. This case is being published for its rarity and unusual site of origin.
