Abstract
A 65-year-old female was admitted to hospital for evaluation of recurrent, right-sided sometimes ensanguined, rhinorrhea and epistaxis. Clinical examination revealed a right-sidedunilateral polypoid nasal mass. After endoscopic sinus surgery a sinunasal hemangiopericytoma (SNHPC) was diagnosed. Revision surgery was performed without any residual tumor. To date the patient is free of recurrence. SNHPCs are uncommon neoplasms of vascular origin. The prognosis is mainly determined by initial tumor size and expansion as well as primary complete resection.Entities:
