Abstract:
Our study is devoted to 12 cases of NPF collated in the ENT department of the Ibn Sina University Hospital in Rabat from 1983 to 1990. All our patients were male, aged from 11 to 24, with late consultation for nasal obstruction and recurring epistaxis. The diagnosis suspected clinically was confirmed by angiography and a CT scan. Surgery of the tumour was the only therapy employed for all our patients. Surgery was preceded by embolization in 5 cases, which considerably reduced per-operative bleeding.
