title: Lobular capillary hemangioma formation: An unusual complication of submucous resection with power instrumentation of the inferior turbinate.
abstract: Submucous resection with powered instrumentation (SRPI) is an effective surgical method to achieve inferior turbinate (IT) reduction with minimal morbidity. We describe a series of two cases of capillary hemangioma (pyogenic granuloma) that developed in the posterior third of the IT as a late complication after SRPI.
