OBJECTIVE

Extranasopharyngeal angiofibromas (ENA) arising from the nasal septum or nasal septal angiofibromas are extremely rare; only 13 such cases have been reported in the international literature. Our objective is to describe the presentation, workup, and surgical management of these lesions.

STUDY DESIGN

SETTING

The setting was a tertiary care referral center and the Veterans Affairs Medical Center. PATIENTS, INTERVENTIONS, AND RESULTS: We present 2 cases of extranasopharyngeal angiofibroma occurring on the nasal septum.

CONCLUSIONS

In this report, we discuss the occurrence, the histopathologic findings, and the treatment of nasal septal angiofibroma.
