Abstract
Hemangioma of the paranasal sinus is an infrequent condition. Two types of hemangioma are present at the nose; cavernous and capillary. Capillary hemangioma is rare in the sinonasal tract. Patients presented with massive epistaxis should think of nasal hemangioma. Resuscitation of patients is important and urgent Computerized Tomography scans should be performed which will help character and extension of any mass present at the nasal cavity. Initial nasal packing may help to prevent bleeding. We report a case of capillary hemangioma of a 30-year lady present with massive epistaxis initially controlled by Nasal packing. Her CT scan shows a homogenous mass at left maxillary sinuses and underwent left endoscopic sphenopalatine artery ligation and removal of the mass.
