Intraosseous Cavernous Hemangioma

The nasal cavity harbors an enormous variety of neoplasms, including epithelial and mesenchymal tumors. Hemangioma is an infrequent mesenchymal tumor of the nasal cavity, mostly arising in the mucosa and rarely in the bones. We describe the case of a 73-year-old woman who was referred to our hospital with a tumor in her left nasal cavity. The tumor originated from the left inferior turbinate. Histological examination subsequent to complete excision revealed that the tumor was an intraosseous cavernous hemangioma. To our knowledge, this is the second case of intraosseous hemangioma of the inferior turbinate reported in the English literature.

The nasal cavity presents with various types of neoplasms, including epithelial and mesenchymal tumors. Cavernous hemangioma of nasal cavity is quite rare. It usually presents as a unilateral mass arising from mucosa of nasal cavity. Case Report                                       We describe here, a case of 25-year-old serving soldier, who was referred to our hospital with a mass in both nasal cavities with bilateral nasal obstruction. On examination, the mass originated from the inferior aspect of inferior turbinate of both sides. Subsequently on histological examination after complete endoscopic excision revealed that the mass was a cavernous hemangioma arising from both inferior turbinates. Discussion To our knowledge, this is the first case of cavernous hemangioma arising from both inferior turbinate reported in literature.

<p class="abstract">Hemangiomas are benign accumulations of blood vessels which occur in any tissue that includes vascular components like skin, mucosa, muscles, glands and bones. Hemangiomas arising in the nose are rare and account for less than 20% of all benign tumors of nose. They usually arise from inferior turbinate, middle turbinate and vomer. We present a case of cavernous hemangioma of left nasal cavity arising from mucosa of left middle meatus mimicking an antrochoanal polyp. Hemangiomas arising from middle meatus are extremely rare and to our knowledge this is the second case reported in literature.</p><p> </p>

AbstractA case of IgD myeloma in a 54-year-old male with a long-standing history of extramedullary plasmacytoma involving the larynx is reported.The patient was treated with radiation therapy and laryngectomy. Twelve years later, he complained of nasal bleeding. On examination he was found to have large masses in the left nasal cavity and in the left supraclavicular region. Histological examination of both lesions showed plasmacytoma. Serum immunoglobulin studies revealed an IgD monoclonal spike of the lambda type. Bence-Jones protein was present. Using the immunoperoxidase staining technique, cytoplasmic monoclonal IgD was detected.

First Case

Abstract Background: Every year 2% of pregnant women undergo non-obstetric surgical interventions worldwide. According to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists Committee on Obstetric Practice, pregnant women should never be denied the most appropriate surgical treatment regardless of the trimester of pregnancy.However, additional attention should be paid during the first trimester since there is the highest risk of inducing teratogenic mutations; similarly, during the third trimester, due to the possibility of preterm birth and low weight of the new-born great care should be paid.Case presentation: We present the case of a 36-year-old woman during her 21st week of pregnancy, with a normal-sized foetus according to the gestational age on ultrasound exam and with no additional risk factors. The patient referred an increasing nasal obstruction associated with rhinorrhoea of the left nasal cavity. She also reported episodes of sleep apnoea and hyposmia.The patient received a detailed otolaryngological examination which allowed to identify a mass within the left nasal cavity. The subsequent nasal endoscopy confirmed a greyish polypoid mass lesion with a multinodular surface occupying the entire left nasal fossa. The lesion totally obliterated the left maxillary sinus resulting in obstruction of the anterior osteo-meatal unit and ethmoidal sinusitis She was referred for functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) using analgosedation with Remifentanil Target Controlled Infusion.Discussion and conclusions: To the very best of our knowledge this is the first case described in English literature about the use of analgosedation with Remifentanil Target Controlled Infusion for otolaryngology surgery, specifically in FESS. It could be an interesting option to avoid the use of inhaled anaesthetics that could induce foetal damage, especially during the first months of pregnancy. Furthermore, patient intubation is not necessary, avoiding cases of difficult intubation or any trauma to the airways. An adequate informed consent and the appropriate compliance are elements of paramount importance in tailoring the anaesthetic strategy for pregnant women who need non-obstetric surgical management.

Abstract Background The concha bullosa is a pneumatized nasal turbinate commonly middle turbinate but that of the inferior turbinate is an uncommon entity. A giant inferior conchal pneumatization with mucocele formation is not reported in the literature till now. Case presentation A 17-year-old female patient presented with bilateral severe nasal obstruction. Anterior rhinoscopy and endoscopic examination revealed a giant mass which filled the left nasal cavity completely, pushing the septum to the contralateral side. The paranasal sinus CT showed a mass in the left nasal cavity ballooning the whole nasal cavity with compression of the nasal septum to the right side. MRI was done and the lesion was hyperintense in T2 MRI sequences and hypointense in T1 sequences consistent with a cystic lesion. The patient was consented and prepared for endoscopic resection under general anesthesia. The lesion was completely separated from the nasal septum and the orbit but attached to the lateral nasal wall at the site of origin of the inferior turbinate. Conchoplasty was done and patient follow-up for 9 years is excellent with complete disappearance of all patient symptoms. Conclusions Concha bullosa of the inferior turbinate should be considered in the differential diagnosis of nasal tumors, nasal cystic lesions, and preoperative evaluation of endoscopic sinus surgery. Also, a systematic approach for dealing with nasal lesions with thorough examination and radiological review will be of great value in decision-making. The anatomy of the paranasal should be thoroughly examined prior to endoscopic sinus surgery to develop treatment strategies and to prevent possible complications.

A six-year-old, male, castrated European shorthair cat was presented due to a lifelong history of sneezing, nasal discharge, open-mouth breathing, stertor and vestibular problems. Clinical examination showed absence of airflow through the nostrils. Computed tomography of the head revealed an infiltrative soft tissue attenuating mass in the left nasal cavity, nasopharynx and the left frontal sinus. All of these locations could be successfully accessed through ventral rhinotomy and the mass was completely removed. Histological examination identified it as an inflammatory polyp. All respiratory and neurological symptoms disappeared, and two-and-a-half years after surgery, the cat was still without complaints.

A 10-year-old boy presented with left-sided nasal obstruction and epistaxis. Endoscopic evaluation revealed a polypoid mass in the vestibule arising from the lateral wall of the nasal cavity anteroinferior to the left inferior turbinate. Computed tomography (CT) scan showed a soft tissue opacity in the vestibule of the left nasal cavity. After the endoscopic excision of the mass, postoperative and histopathological analyses confirmed the diagnosis of an angiofibroma.

Objectives. To investigate hemangiomas in the differential diagnosis of the nasal cavity neoplasms, even though it is an extremely rare mesenchymal tumor of the nasal cavity, and the world literature was reviewed.Case Report. A 57-year-old woman applied to our department with a 5-year history of left-sided nasal obstruction without history of epistaxis, nasal packaging, or facial trauma. Anterior rhinoscopic examination revealed a mass originating from inferior turbinate that completely obstructs the left nasal cavity. Paranasal computed tomography (CT) showed that the bony mass originated from the anterior part of the left inferior turbinate. Surrounding tissues were normal, and there was not any erosion or destruction. Mass was excised by the endoscopic approach. Histological diagnosis was reported as osseous cavernous hemangioma.Conclusion. Hemangiomas are a rare cause of intranasal masses. Its unusual site and masked presentation makes the differential diagnosis difficult. When a bony hard, well-shaped mass was seen in the nasal cavity, the possibility of intraosseous hemangioma must be remembered.

Nodular fasciitis (NF) is a benign, self-limiting, reactive soft tissue tumor that is composed of fibroblasts and myofibroblasts and is often misdiagnosed as a malignant lesion. Nodular fasciitis is often reported in adults but rarely seen in children. We report the case of a 3-year-old girl with a rapidly growing NF in the left nasal cavity. The initial biopsy suggested the possibility of a spindle cell tumor or low-grade malignant tumor, respectively. The child underwent complete excision of the tumor. With the help of immunohistochemistry and pathological consultation, the final diagnosis was confirmed as NF. There was no recurrence during an 18-month follow-up period.

A 2-year-old mare of an unknown breed was referred to the clinic due to undetermined breathing difficulties. Physical examination revealed painless swelling rostral to the nasoincisive notch and a large, firm mass protruding from the left nostril. Radiographic examination of the head revealed a mass occupying the left nasal cavity and a displaced and hypoplastic last premolar of the left maxilla. The CT scan showed a well-demarcated heterogeneous mass measuring 22 × 9 × 5 cm (length × height × width) in the left nasal cavity attached to the roots of the displaced tooth and conchae. The surgery was performed on the standing horse. Firstly, due to the oblique position of the displaced tooth, the extraction was performed extra-orally through the trephination and repulsion of the maxillary bone. In the next step, a direct surgical approach was chosen for the caudal part of the mass via the osteotomy of the left nasal bone. The mass was bluntly separated from the conchae and removed through the nostril using Fergusson forceps. The histopathological characteristics of the mass led to the diagnosis of ossifying fibroma. The horse recovered completely in seven months, without recurrence after two years.
