Abstract

|
Cavernous lymphangioma is a benign congenital malformation that usually appears in the early childhood. It may arise in any anatomical location, including the head and neck, but is rarely found in the nasal cavity. Recently, we experienced a case of a cavernous lymphangioma originating from the nasal cavity, which was successfully treated by endoscopic approach without recurrence. Cavernous lymphangioma can occur in the nasal cavity, and therefore, it should be included in the differential diagnosis of mass on the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses. In this paper, we present and discuss this rare case with a review of the literature.
