Abstract

Eosinophilic angiocentric fibrosis of the upper respiratory tract is a rare disorder of unknown aetiology. Despite characteristic histological findings, the aetiology and management of this lesion remain unclear. We describe a case of nasal eosinophilic angiocentric fibrosis and discuss possible demographic and aetiological patterns.
