Abstract
|
|
|
|
An angiomatous polyp originates from a sinochoanal polyp, and may be confused with a vascular neoplasm. Compromise of their vascular supply may occasionally lead to infarction, resulting in clinical, radiological and pathological features that simulate a neoplastic process. Recently, we experienced a case of angiomatous nasal polyp that eroded the anterior wall of maxilla at the time of its presentation in a 15-year-old boy. Angiomatous nasal polyps are poorly documented in clinical literature. Although entirely benign, they may simulate neoplastic processes. Thus, awareness of their existence is of considerable importance.
