Nasal bone haemangiomas: rare entities treatable by craniofacial approach.
Three cases of haemangioma of the nasal bone are illustrative of a rare clinical entity. These were treated by current craniofacial surgical techniques. The advantages of this approach are obvious minimising of the facial deformity, obtaining autologous cranial bone graft and rigid fixation to enhance stability and minimise resorption.
