Nasal Framework Reconstruction in Patient with Eosinophilic Angiocentric Fibrosis

Abstract

Eosinophilic angiocentric Fibrosis (EAF) is a rare condition involving the sinonasal tract and nasal septum which is mostly considered as a benign condition. EAF could present with progressive nasal obstruction as its most common symptom. In this case report, we try to report a case of middle aged man with nasal septum tumor-link lesion which was diagnosed with EAF. A 45 years old man presented with complete nasal obstruction who described a growing nasal cavity mass for over 6 months. Anterior rhinoscopy revealed bilateral mass with a smooth surface on the nasal septum and mass protruded into both nasal cavities. CT scan showed a 28 × 18 mm soft tissue mass in nasal cavity mostly in right side with erosion of right maxillary alveolar ridge. Microscopic examination of a biopsy taken from the mass showed dense infiltration of inflammatory cells rich in eosinophils as well as perivascular condensation of fibrotic bundles creating onion-skin appearance was noted. The patient went under surgical ablation of the tumor and has been followed up every 2–3 month for about 1 year and there was no evidence of recurrent disease. The complete surgical excision may eradicate the allergic manifestations in the EAF patients and cartilage graft such as rib graft seems to be safe if the reconstruction is needed. It is important to prevent tumor from recurrence by totally resecting the involved tissues.
