Abstract :
We reported CT of a case of giant organized hematoma originating
from the inferior turbinate without any paranasal sinuses involvement,
with an emphasis on different patterns of enhancement of the tumor on
enhanced CT scans. This case was exceptional because of unusual location
and difficulties in diagnosis. Moreover, organized hematoma of nasal
cavity should be considered in the differential diagnosis of a
unilateral, huge and easy bleeding lesion in the nasal cavity. A high
clinical suspicion based on endoscopic and radiologic findings plays an
important role to make an accurate diagnosis.
