Glomangiopericytoma is a rare sinonasal tumor originating from modified
perivascular glomus-like myoid cells, and accounts for less than 0.5% of
all sinonasal tumors. It is a boderlline, low grade malignancy tumor and
has good prognosis when completely resected. We report a case of a 43-
year-old man who had been complaining of 3 episodes of right epistaxis
for 5 days. In nasal endoscopy, polpoid lesion between right middle
turbinate and nasal septum extended to choana area. Paranasal sinus
computed tomography showed low density nodular lesion with subtle
enhancing in the right nasal cavity posterior portion. We performed
endoscopic sinus surgery under navigation system. 2.5cm sized polypoid
lesion originated from right middle turbinate was observed and permanent
biopsy was performed. Histopathoogic examination confirmed the resected
specimen as glomangiopericytoma. The patient was followed up for 6
months without any recurrence or complications. |
