“…Here, we report a case of cavernous variety in the right inferior turbinate. Few previously reported cases originated from the inferior turbinate, 9–12 but Caylakli et al reported cavernous hemangioma in the middle turbinate, 13 Nakahira et al reported in vomer, 14 Graumüller et al demonstrated a case in lamina perpendicular is ossi ethmoidalis, 15 Engels et al reported a case in the sinus maxillaris, 16 and recently Yeon et al published a case report on the lateral wall of the inferior nasal meatus 17 . Extremely rare conditions are seen in patients with concomitant malformation or benign or malignant lesions in the sinonasal sinus anatomical site.…”

Our patient had a history of progressive right and left‐sided nasal obstruction without a history of excessive bleeding and experienced endoscopic sinus surgery removing polypoidal masses from both sides with quite excessive intraoperative bleeding from the right side that has been proven to be a cavernous hemangioma, whereas the left side polyp was proven to be an inverted papilloma.…”

Hemangiomas are common lesions in medical practice, but those arising in the nasal cavity and/or paranasal sinuses are rare. Inverted papilloma is a rare benign tumor with a high incidence rate in both the nasal cavity and sinuses. The presence of both lesions in the same patient is even rarer. Here we present a case of a male patient with an unusual presentation and dual pathologies of cavernous hemangioma and inverted papilloma of the sinonasal tract that underwent endoscopic surgery and showed no recurrence of disease after a 2‐year follow‐up. The association of nasal cavernous hemangioma at one side and inverted papilloma at the other side is a very rare occasion that requires further studies and histopathology is the only diagnostic tool.

Nasal hemangiomas most commonly occur in the anterior part of the nose, including the Little’s area of the nasal septum, the anterior tip of the inferior nasal turbinate, and the vestibule. They rarely develop in the posterior part of the inferior nasal turbinate and meatus. Here, we report a case of cavernous hemangioma at the posterior aspect of the left inferior meatus in a 79-year-old man who presented with epistaxis and progressive nasal obstruction for 4 months after blowing his nose forcefully and review the relevant literature. An endoscopic evaluation revealed a dark red mass in the posterior part of the left inferior meatus that did not extend to the posterior choana or nasopharynx. The tumor was removed with endoscopic surgery under general anesthesia. No recurrence was observed during a 2-year follow-up. Our experience suggests that forceful nose blowing is a traumatic stimulus that can lead to hemangiomas arising in the posterior nasal cavity in rare instances.
