Abstract：
A 54-year-old female presented to the otolaryngology (ENT) outpatient department with an eight-month history of unilateral nasal obstruction and headache. There was no change in the sense of smell, rhinorrhoea, facial pain, or associated epistaxis. On examination, there was a large, erythematous mass in the superior aspect of the right nasal cavity, filling the space between the nasal septum, middle, and superior meatus. The rest of the ENT examination was normal. Vital signs were all within the normal range. There was no significant past medical history, and she had tried steroid nasal spray without any benefit. She had a complete resolution of symptoms from surgical intervention, and the mass was confirmed to be an angiofibroma through histopathology. This case report discusses the importance of considering nasopharyngeal angiofibroma as a differential diagnosis for patients presenting with unilateral nasal masses, including female patients, regardless of age.
