Abstract
Lobular capillary hemangiomas (LCH), which usually originate in the skin and mucous membranes of the oral cavity, are uncommon from the posterior portion of the inferior turbinate. Although the exact cause of LCH in the nasal cavity has not been elucidated, trauma, caused by factors such as intranasal packing and habitual nose-picking, has been reported as one of the causes. In addition, 2 cases of LCH caused by submucosal resection with powered instrumentation to the inferior turbinate have been reported, suggesting that various types of traumas to the nasal mucosa can cause LCH. The authors report the first case of LCH formation in the posterior portion of the inferior turbinate after cauterization with silver nitrate.
