Nasal hemangiopericytoma--a case report

J Korean Med Sci. 1990 Sep;5(3):173-8. doi: 10.3346/jkms.1990.5.3.173.

Abstract

A case of rare intranasal hemangiopericytoma in a 68-year-old male was reported with typical histological and ultrastructural findings. The lesion clinically resembled a nasal polyp. The experience in the present case raised the need for differential diagnoses of vascularised spindle cell tumors and of traditional hemangiopericytoma in soft tissue.
