Sinonasal glomangiopericytoma is a benign rare tumour of pericytes that accounts for less than 0.5% of all sinonasal tumours. It is an indolent tumour with a macroscopic appearance of common inflammatory polyps. We report the case of a 55-year-old male who presented with right nasal obstruction. CT and MRI examinations demonstrated a soft-tissue mass that obstructed mainly the right nasal cavity. Biopsy revealed glomangiopericytoma. The tumour was treated with preoperative embolisation followed by complete endoscopic resection. Very few cases have been reported to be treated in this way.
鼻窦血管外皮细胞瘤是一种罕见的周细胞良性肿瘤,占所有鼻窦肿瘤的比例不到0.5%。它是一种生长缓慢的肿瘤,肉眼外观与常见的炎性息肉相似。我们报告一例55岁男性患者,因右侧鼻塞就诊。CT和MRI检查显示一个软组织肿块,主要阻塞右侧鼻腔。活检显示为血管外皮细胞瘤。该肿瘤先接受了术前栓塞治疗,随后进行了完整的内镜下切除。据报道,很少有病例采用这种方式治疗。
