The Nasal Hemangioma

Clinical Difference Between Capillary and Cavernous Hemangiomas of Nasal Cavity

“…Presenting symptoms of sinonasal hemangiomas are usually nasal bleeding, nasal obstruction, rhinorrhea, and pain. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] Nasal bleeding was the most common symptom of sinonasal hemangiomas in this study. However, there was no statistically significant difference in presenting symptoms between capillary and cavernous hemangiomas of nasal cavity.…”

“…Imaging modalities such as CT and MRI are useful in evaluating the extent and characteristics of the tumor. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] The typical CT finding of sinonasal hemangiomas shows well-circumscribed masses with enhancement. 1,4 MRI of sinonasal hemangiomas demonstrates heterogeneously high and low signals on T1-and T2-weighted images.…”

“…H emangioma occurs predominantly in the head and neck region, but is very rare in the nasal cavity. [1][2][3][4][5][6] Hemangiomas are histologically divided into capillary and cavernous types according to the dominant microscopic vessel size. [1][2][3][4][5][6] The differences in site and size of tumor and radiologic findings depend on tumor histopathology.…”

“…[1][2][3][4][5][6] Hemangiomas are histologically divided into capillary and cavernous types according to the dominant microscopic vessel size. [1][2][3][4][5][6] The differences in site and size of tumor and radiologic findings depend on tumor histopathology. 1,4 Therefore, we identified patients with sinonasal hemangioma treated surgically for 10 years at our hospital and classified them into capillary and cavernous hemangiomas.…”

Lobular capillary haemangioma of nasal septum with remodelling of bony lateral wall

“…They most commonly affect women in the third decade of life (3,6). Typical clinical features include nasal bleed, nasal obstruction and nasal discharge (6).…”
