This study is based on 29 juvenile angiofibroma, treated in 16 years. The average of age is 16.3 years but 24% of patients are over 20 years old. Scanner is the best mean to known the extension to the base of the skull and pterygoïd fossa. Angiography is not yet necessary and may be dangerous. The surgical approach is transmaxillary in most cases, with a very low average of recurrence = 10% and 1 post operative death.
本研究基于16年间治疗的29例青少年血管纤维瘤。平均年龄为16.3岁,但24%的患者年龄超过20岁。CT扫描是了解肿瘤向颅底和翼腭窝扩展情况的最佳手段。血管造影尚无必要,且可能有风险。大多数病例采用经上颌入路手术,平均复发率极低,为10%,术后有1例死亡。
