title: Maxillary haemangioma.
abstract: Maxillary haemangioma is a rare entity. It presents with a painless, slow-growing swelling and if it involves the paranasal sinuses it may present with severe epistaxis, mimicking a malignancy. A case of haemangioma arising in the bony maxilla and causing a cosmetic problem is presented here.
