RESUMO
Giant cell angiofibroma was first described as a distinctive orbital soft-tissue tumour in male adults; it is now recognized that this mesenchymal tumour can present in other anatomical regions. In this article, a case of giant cell angiofibroma of parapharyngeal space in a 25-year-old woman is described. Clinicopathologic features of this tumour are reviewed. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first reported case of giant cell angiofibroma arising in the parapharyngeal space.
