Abstract:
Capillary lobular hemangioma is a rare, benign vascular pseudotumor that develops mainly in the anterior nasal septum, particularly within Kiesselbach's triangle, and is more common in children than adults. We report the case of a 29-year-old female patient with no significant medical or surgical history who presented with recurrent right-sided epistaxis. Nasal endoscopy revealed a polylobulated, contact-bleeding lesion located on the anterior part of the nasal septum. A CT scan of the paranasal sinuses suggested a capillary lobular hemangioma, which was confirmed by histopathological examination following complete endoscopic endonasal resection. This case highlights the importance of considering capillary lobular hemangioma among the differential diagnoses of unilateral recurrent epistaxis and polylobulated nasal masses, enabling early management through an endoscopic endonasal approach and leading to favorable outcomes.

Cranial Bones: Lateral View
The temporal bone forms the lower lateral side of the skull. The temporal bone is subdivided into several regions. The flattened upper portion is the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Below this area and projecting anteriorly is the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the posterior portion of the zygomatic arch. Posteriorly is the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. Projecting...
