Lobular capillary haemangioma of the nasal cavity: observation of three specific cases.

Lobular Capillary Haemangioma of the nasal cavity: Observation of three specific cases. Lobular Capillary Haemangioma, unproperly called "Pyogenic granuloma", is a benign vascular tumour pedunculated on the skin and on mucous membranes of the oral and nasal cavities. Microtrauma and pregnancy are the most often evocated aetiologic factors. Epistaxis and nasal obstruction are the most marked symptoms of this irregular and friable mass. We report three cases (two adult and one paediatric) of this pathology. Two have as trigger factor a nasal microtrauma, the third an oestro-progestative impregnation. A clinical, radiological and histological description allows us to expose the characteristics of this lesion that remains obscure to many rhinologists. Lobular Capillary Haemangioma has to be evocated in the differential diagnosis of each haemorrhagic endonasal mass

[Laryngeal metastasis of a colonic adenocarcinoma].

We report the case of a 63 year old man with laryngeal metastasis of a colonic adenocarcinoma recurrent after partial cordectomy by CO2 Laser microlaryngoscopy. This patient was followed for this condition between 2009 and 2010. The rarity of metastatic laryngeal metastases, particularly when the primary tumor is colic, justifies this presentation
