Current approach of juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma: a case series.

Juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma (JNA) is a rare benign tumor that affects predominantly males and is known by its highly vascular character. We have performed a 3-year retrospective study of patients with JNA surgically treated within the third ENT Department of Prof. Dr. Dorin Hociota Institute of Phonoaudiology and Functional ENT Surgery, Bucharest, Romania. In all the cases, the patients were investigated both clinically and through medical imaging before surgery and all tumors were embolized. Our study comprised of eight cases, of which seven were solved by endoscopic endonasal approach and one case was treated through a combined endonasal-external approach. JNA should always be managed through a multidisciplinary team (MDT) approach in centers with adequate experience, to gain favorable results.
