摘要

Angioleiomyoma is a rare benign smooth muscle tumor that is uncommonly encountered within the nasal cavity and presents with non-specific symptoms. Biopsy with histopathology examination is required to establish the diagnosis. The primary therapy for nasal angioleiomyoma is total surgical excision and follow up is recommended to identify local recurrence. Here, we present a case of angioleiomyoma found in the inferior turbinate and provide an overview of the relevant literature.
