Endonasal Endoscopic Excision of Nasopharyngeal Angiofibroma (Radio Frequency Assisted)
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 11
Abstract
Nasopharyngeal angiofibroma is a benign disorder and it accounts for 0.5% of head & neck tumours. It’s a highly vascular tumour with absence of elastic layer in its wall making it prone for unprovoked, substantial blood loss. Because of its ability to insinuate into fissures &foramina, surgical extirpation of the mass needs thorough anatomical knowledge and greater surgical skill while approaching the mass in an expanded endonasal endoscopic manner.
