title: Hemangiopericytoma like tumor - a diagnostic challenge.
abstract: Haemangjopericytoma is a vascular tumour rarely seen in common practice, especially in head & neck. Hemangjopericytoma - like tumor is an even more rare entity and only 70 cases have been described arising from the nose & paranasal sinuses. The aim of this paper is to review the literature and highlight the ability of the tumor to masquerade as a less ominous, more commonly occurring benign growth of the region thereby making the diagnosis even more elusive.
