1/1. Eosinophilic angiocentric fibrosis.Eosinophilic angiocentric fibrosis (EAF) is a rare disease of the sinonasal tract, with histologic characteristic features like thick collagen bundles whirling around vessels in a fibrotic stroma with inflammatory cells rich in eosinophils. The Authors present a case of a 31-year-old man with bilateral nasal obstruction with no history of allergies or other systemic disease. The patient underwent a septoplasty with symptoms relieving. An EAF diagnosis was made. Differential diagnosis must rule out other lesions that may mimic EAF such as granuloma faciale, Kimura disease, wegener granulomatosis, churg-strauss syndrome.- - - - - - - - - - ranking = 1keywords = rare disease (Clic here for more details about this article) |
