Eosinophilic angiocentric fibrosis affecting the nasal cavity. A mucosal variant of the skin lesion granuloma faciale

Eosinophilic angiocentric fibrosis (EAF) is an unusual fibrotic condition a ffecting the mucose of the upper respiratory tract, of which there have bee n eight reported cases. The condition is thought to be associated with the rare skin disorder granuloma faciale, which is histologically identical, an d was present in two cases of EAF. We report the third case where EAF and g ranuloma faciale occurred together, to highlight this type of intranasal fi brosis as a distinct pathological entity.
