    Area of Science:

    • Otolaryngology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Nasopharyngeal angiofibroma is a rare, benign tumor typically affecting adolescent males.
    • Its etiology and pathogenesis remain incompletely understood, with traditional views suggesting strict sex linkage.

    Observation:

    • Presents three histologically confirmed cases of nasopharyngeal angiofibroma.
    • Highlights an unusual case in a female patient, challenging the established sex predilection.
    • Discusses histopathological findings and treatment approaches for these cases.

    Findings:

    • The histopathological analysis confirmed nasopharyngeal angiofibroma in all three patients.
    • The occurrence in a female patient contradicts the commonly held belief of strict sex linkage for this tumor.
    • The study suggests that unfamiliarity with histopathology and potential for spontaneous regression may contribute to its low recorded prevalence.

    Implications:

    • The findings suggest a need to reconsider the presumed sex linkage of nasopharyngeal angiofibroma.
    • Improved awareness of histopathological features may aid in diagnosing this uncommon tumor.
    • While short-term progress is encouraging, long-term prognosis for nasopharyngeal angiofibroma requires continued monitoring.
