Highlights
Hemangiomas are common benign vascular tumors of the head and neck region. However, they are not common to arise in the sinonasal mucosa.
Hemangioms have an average size of one centimeter and have been reported to be as large as 8 cm.
The endoscopic approach is the usual surgical approach in small size hemangiomas, while an open approach is more common with the larger size.
Preoperative embolization has been shown to be effective in decreasing tumor size and minimizing bleeding.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
