Abstract

Nasopharyngeal angiofibromas are benign and vascular neoplasms, which originate characteristically in the posterior lateral wall of the nasopharynx. They account for less than 0.5% of all head and neck tumours. Although angiofibromas extend beyond the nasopharynx usually, they rarely originate outside the nasopharynx. Reports of primary extranasopharyngeal angiofibromas have appeared sporadically in the literature. The maxillary sinus is the most common site involved, while the inferior turbinate represents an extremely rare localization. We report a case of angiofibroma which arising from the tail of the inferior turbinate in the right nasal cavity.

Özet

Nazofarengeal anjiofibromlar karakteristik olarak nazofarinksin arka yan duvarından kaynaklanan benign ve vasküler tümörlerdir. Tüm baş ve boyun tümörlerinin %0,5'inden daha azını oluştururlar. Anjiofibromlar sıklıkla nazofarenks dışına yayılmalarına rağmen nazofarenks dışından nadiren kaynaklanırlar. Pirimer olarak nazofarenks dışından kaynaklanan anjiofibromlar literatürde tek tük bulunmaktadır. Bunlar içerisinde en sık maksiler sünüs kaynaklı olanlar görülürken, inferior konka kaynaklı olanlar son derece nadirdir. Biz sağ nazal kavitede alt konkanın kuyruğundan kaynaklanan bir anjiofibrom vakası sunduk.
