Abstract:
Haemorrhagic nodules have been mentioned previously as a significant cause of epistaxis in adults. We have taken photographs and obtained biopsies to characterize them. They consist of an aneurysmal dilatation of an unusually sited muscular artery with evidence of hypertensive changes in the wall, and thrombus and haemorrhage into the adjacent connective tissue.
