An unusual case of angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia of the nose.
Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia (ALHE) is a rare benign vascular lesion that most commonly involves the ear and preauricular area. We report the case of a 38-year-old man who presented with a progressively enlarging mass of the left nasal vestibule. The lesion was diagnosed as a nasal ALHE and treated with surgical excision. There were no complications.
