Ear Nose Throat J. 2021 Feb 09;:145561321993597 Authors: Vukadinović T, Labus M, Spasić S, Đurđević BV, Perić A Abstract Lobular capillary hemangioma (LCH) is a benign capillary proliferation with a microscopically distinctive lobular architecture, composed of small to medium-sized vessels of capillary type. Rarely, it originates from the mucosa of the nasal cavity, most frequently from the anterior nasal septum, turbinates, and nasal vestibule. Etiology is unclear, but previous investigations suggest that this lesion is associated with injury, hormonal factors, some viral infections, and therapy with some drugs. We present a case of LCH arising from the medial wall of the maxillary sinus in a 15-year-old boy, which was completely excised by preoperative embolization and endoscopic sinus surgery. To our knowledge, this is the second reported case of an LCH originating from the maxillary antrum. Etiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment modalities of LCH were also discussed.
