Introduction

  • Juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma (JNA) is a locally aggressive benign vascular tumor, it accounts for 0.05% of all head and neck tumors occurring in 1 of 150,000 individuals.
  • The age of onset is between 10 to 25 years marked by nasal obstruction and recurrent unilateral epistaxis.
  • Surgical removal remains the gold standard for the management of this disease almost done nowadays via Endoscopic Techniques, after angiographic mapping and preoperative intra-arterial embolization (PIAE).
  • The prognosis is correlated to the extension of the tumor (aggressive power) and the frequency of recurrence.
  • The external carotid artery in 64% of cases vascularize JNA [3], few cases from the internal carotid artery are reported [1,2].
