Abstract
Angiofibrolipoma is a rarely seen histopathological variant of lipoma. It is seldom in the head and neck region. Clinically, it shows macroscopic similarity with lipoma. In this article, we report a 65-year-old male case who presented with left-sided nasal obstruction. After complete removal of the tumor, histopathological diagnosis was reported as angiofibrolipoma. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report of an angiofibrolipoma of the nose in the literature.
