Pediatric intranasal lobular capillary hemangioma: a case report and review of the literature.

Lobular capillary hemangioma is a benign lesion commonly affecting the head and neck region. However, in children, it is commonly seen in the buccal mucosa, gingiva, and the tongue, but its presence in the nasal cavity is less frequent. The most common symptoms of nasal hemangiomas are epistaxis and nasal obstruction. However, we present a case of a thirteen-year-old male having intranasal lobular capillary hemangioma with a 2-day history of left-sided epistaxis. The diagnosis is confirmed by histological examination, and the treatment is done by endonasal endoscopic excision of the hemangioma with cauterization of the feeding vessel has performed to remove the lesion completely. Moreover, the diagnosis of lobular capillary hemangioma must always be kept in mind when discussing the differential diagnosis of a bleeding mass within the nasal cavity, even though it is a rare condition and surgical excision is still the preferred first-line treatment.
