[Giant nasal septalhaemangioma in pregnancy: one case report].
A pregnant lady in her third trimester presented with a rapidly growing right-sided nasal mass associated with epistaxis and nasal obstruction for six months. Examination showed a non tender, protruding mass completely occluding her right nostril. Wide surgical excision was done under anaesthesia. Histopathology revealed capillary haemangioma. In a gravid patient with a rapidly growing intranasal lesion, capillary haemangioma should be considered as a differential diagnosis.
