Angiofibromas are nasopharyngeal tumours mostly seen in adolescent males. They usually present with nasal obstruction and epistaxis. They account for less than 0.5% of all head and neck tumours. Extranasopharyngeal angiofibromas although rare, have been reported (Ali et al., 1982). The most common extranasopharyngeal site is the maxillary sinus. We report a case of extranasopharyngeal angiofibroma arising from the inferior turbinate which had an unusual clinical presentation.
血管纤维瘤是主要见于青春期男性的鼻咽部肿瘤。它们通常表现为鼻塞和鼻出血。它们占所有头颈部肿瘤的比例不到0.5%。鼻外型血管纤维瘤虽然罕见，但已有报道（阿里等人，1982年）。最常见的鼻外型部位是上颌窦。我们报告一例起源于下鼻甲的鼻外型血管纤维瘤，其临床表现不寻常。
