Abstract
Angiomyolipoma (AML) is a rare benign tumor originating from mesenchial tissue [1]. Most often, this tumor affects the kidneys and is 0.3–3% [1-3]. Extrarenal AML is observed very rarely (about 40 cases have been described in the literature). After the kidneys, AML is most often found in the liver, then in descending order: in the uterus, brain, vagina, penis, nasal cavity, hard palate, abdominal wall, fallopian tubes, spermatic cord, colon, retroperitoneal space. To date, 6 cases of AML of the nasal cavity have been officially registered [ ]. As a rule, they are hamartomic lesions containing smooth muscles, vascular network and mature adipose tissue. This article presents a clinical observation of a patient with such a rare pathology as AML of the nasal cavity. The use of a complex of histological and immunohistochemical diagnostic methods makes it possible to make the correct diagnosis
