비골에서 발생한 골내 혈관종 1예

Intraosseous hemangioma is an uncommon tumor accounting for less than 1% of all primary bone tumors. The most frequent sites are the calvarium and vertebrae, however, involvement of the facial bones is rare. The diagnosis of facial bone hemangioma is difficult because the patients are usually asymptomatic, particularly in small lesions. Thus, intraosseous hemangioma of the nasal bone occurs extremely infrequent. Here we report a case of intraosseous hemangioma of the nasal bone treated with the surgical excision and reconstruction by autologous septal bone graft in a 62-year-old female.
