ABSTRACT
Lobular capillary hemangioma, also known as pyogenic granuloma, is characterized by anastomosing networks of capillaries arranged in one or more lobules in edematous and fibroblastic stroma on histopathological examination. The majority of the lesions are usually small and they tend to be localized in the anterior part of the septum or in the head of the inferior turbinate, mainly affecting the anterior part of the nasal cavities. Proposed contributing factors for the development of lobular capillary hemangioma include trauma, hormones, viral oncogenes, arteriovenous malformations, and angiogenic growth factors. Reported herein is a 27-year-old male with a 3-month history of left nasal obstruction and intermittent epistaxis, who was found to have a nasal cavity mass that was successfully removed via endoscopic endonasal approach. We describe here a case of lobular capillary hemangioma originated from the posterior nasal septum with superimposed fungus.
