title: Nasal presentation of an intracranial vascular anomaly.
abstract: Intracranial vascular anomalies uncommonly present as a nasal mass. We report the first documented intranasal extension of a venous angioma of the anterior and middle cranial fossas. The diagnostic evaluation and differential diagnosis of an intranasal vascular mass is emphasized. In addition, recommendations are offered regarding the surgical approach of such a lesion.
