Abstract

Nasal hemangiomas are uncommon benign vascular tumors rarely seen arising from the nasal cavity. Here, we present a case of a 19-year-old female with lobular capillary hemangioma on right side of the nasal septum; an infrequent presentation both in terms of age and anatomical site. This case report highlights a rare septal origin with discussion on clinical course, diagnostics and management.
