Lobular capillary hemangioma is a rare benign lesion found within the tracheobronchial tree. Patients usually present with recurrent hemoptysis, chronic cough, and rarely, with airway obstruction. We present a case of tracheal lobular capillary hemangioma in a 70-year-old man who presented with stridor and chronic cough. Bronchoscopy showed a 2-cm polypoidal lesion below the vocal cords, which was resected with an electrocautery snare using a rigid bronchoscope. Clinicians should be aware of this entity as one of the differentials for stridor. Bronchoscopic excision of the tumor is feasible and is a minimally invasive therapeutic option for management of these tumors.

Nasal and paranasal sinus masses can arise from a wide range of conditions, both benign and malignant, as well as congenital or acquired. Diagnosing these masses is often challenging, requiring a combination of nasal endoscopy, imaging studies, and histopathological analysis. Initial imaging frequently involves computed tomography or cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) to evaluate the bony anatomy of the nasal cavity and surrounding sinuses, while magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is typically used for detailed assessment of soft tissues and to aid in differential diagnosis when the findings are inconclusive.

Article Synopsis
- Lobular capillary hemangioma, also known as pyogenic granuloma, is a benign tumor that develops on skin and mucous membranes, often found in the mouth or nose, and is associated with factors like trauma and hormonal changes.
- The diagnosis of this condition is primarily confirmed through histological examination due to its diverse and nonspecific clinical features.
- A case study highlights a 60-year-old man with a PG in the vestibular larynx that caused throat discomfort and sleep apnea, which was successfully removed through a surgical procedure and confirmed as a lobular capillary hemangioma via histology.

Lobular capillary hemangioma is a benign vascular tumor predominantly seen in pediatric populations. A 34-year-old male developed a reddish nodular mass on the upper eyelid of his left eye. An excisional biopsy was performed, and a histopathological examination of the specimen revealed proliferative vessels lined by increased endothelial cells, devoid of nuclear atypia.

It is typically confined to the head, neck, and upper extremities, and its occurrence in the testicular region is exceedingly rare. Here, we present a case of a 68-year-old male who was initially diagnosed with a testicular tumor based on imaging studies but was later found to have an ILCH located in the epididymis.
