Lobular capillary hemangioma of the nasal septum

Abstract

Numerous vascular tumors may develop in the nasal cavity. These tumors usually present with clinical symptoms such as nasal discharge, epistaxis, and obstruction. Among these, lobular capillary hemangioma, although its etiology is unknown, is generally encountered on the skin, lips, buccal mucosa, tongue, and gums. Capillary hemangioma can be pedunculated or large and is rarely observed in the nasal septum. We present a case with lobular capillary hemangioma located in the nasal septum of a 36-year-old female patient who was admitted with the complaint of epistaxis.
