Abstract
Abstract The extranasopharyngeal angiofibroma is a rare entity that mainly affects the male population. According to the revision carried out, there are only three reported cases of female patients at pediatric ages, none of which were originated in the nasal septum. There is a case of a 5-year-old female patient with recurrent epistaxis, in which a nasal mass was found attached to the septum. For this case, endoscopic resection was performed prior to embolization, with minimal bleeding and no need for nasal clogging after the procedure. The histopathological study confirmed the presence of an angiofibroma. This is the first reported case of angiofibroma of the nasal septum in a female pediatric patient.
