Case of giant juvenile angiofibroma resected by external incision with temporary double balloon occlusion of the internal carotid artery by intraoperative endovascular treatment.

We report the first case of a juvenile nasal angiofibroma (JNA) fed by multiple arteries from the internal carotid artery (ICA), removed without complications by temporarily blocking the ICA with two balloons. An early adolescent with JNA underwent preoperative embolisation of feeding arteries arising from the external carotid artery (ECA) (University of Pittsburgh Medical Centre classification IV). Endoscopic resection was attempted once but discontinued due to massive bleeding (7000 mL).
