AI Article Synopsis

  • Intraosseous hemangiomas in the nasal cavity are very rare, with only 2 reported cases in the ethmoid region.
  • These tumors should be considered when a patient has persistent nasal congestion.
  • Diagnosis typically requires a biopsy, and the recommended treatment is en bloc resection through a transnasal endoscopic approach, possibly combined with preoperative embolization.

Article Abstract

Intraosseous hemangiomas, also referred to as bony hemangiomas, arising within the nasal cavity are exceedingly rare with only 2 cases arising in the ethmoid region. Despite their rarity, they are important to consider in a patient presenting with long-standing nasal congestion. While characteristic findings on computed tomography imaging may be observed, biopsy is diagnostic. En bloc resection using a transnasal endoscopic approach with or without preoperative embolization is the treatment of choice for intranasal intraosseous hemangiomas.
