Abstract
Cited by 0 Articles

Juvenile angiofibroma is a fibrovascular tumour originating from the vascular structures of the posterolateral nasal wall, and the endoscopic technique has become the approach of choice. Radiofrequency ablation is a minimally invasive procedure that generates thermal ablation through coagulation, dissecting, cauterizing, and aspirating the tissue with the same device. We describe our experience with a series of 3 cases of patients operated on for juvenile angiofibroma resection using radiofrequency ablation and evaluate the efficacy and usefulness of the treatment.

Key words: Juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma, radiofrequency ablation, nasal endoscopy
