ABSTRACT
Angiofibroma is benign hypervascular tumor that usually occurs in the nasopharynx of adolescent male patient and rarely originates from outside of the nasopharynx, called extranasopharyngeal angiofibroma. The clinical and radiologic findings of extranasopharyngeal angiofibroma are similar to other hypervascular tumors, which may delay diagnosis and treatment. We present a case of extranasopharyngeal angiofibroma arising from nasal septum of a 43-year-old male who complained of right nasal obstruction. Contrast enhancement CT revealed a hypervascular tumor of the nasal septum and the tumor was removed by endoscopic resection. Histopathologic examination confirmed the diagnosis of angiofibroma.
