    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Nasopharyngeal angiofibroma, a rare benign tumor in adolescent males, can present unusually. This case highlights successful surgical management and the importance of differentiating recurrence from inflammation.

    Area of Science:

    • Otolaryngology
    • Oncology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Nasopharyngeal angiofibroma is a rare, benign neoplasm predominantly affecting adolescent males.
    • Surgical excision is typically curative for localized nasopharyngeal tumors.

    Observation:

    • A rare case of nasopharyngeal angiofibroma presented with an unusual cheek swelling.
    • The tumor extended beyond the nasopharynx into the pterygopalatine and infratemporal fossae.

    Findings:

    • Radical surgical removal was performed without adjuvant radiation therapy.
    • A suspected recurrence after 32 months was diagnosed as inflammatory tissue, indicating successful initial treatment.
    • The patient remained in good condition 2.5 years post-treatment.

    Implications:

    • This case underscores the importance of considering extranasopharyngeal extension in angiofibroma presentation.
    • Accurate diagnosis is crucial to differentiate tumor recurrence from post-operative inflammatory changes.
    • Management strategies for extensive nasopharyngeal angiofibromas, including intracranial extension, warrant careful consideration of surgical and/or radiation approaches.
