Abstract:
Hemangioma of maxillary sinus is very rare. Preoperative diagnosis of maxillary sinus hemangioma is important since these lesions can frequently cause a large amount of hemorrhage during surgery. A case of hemangioma from maxillary sinus in a 20-yearold woman who presented with epistaxis is reported.
