  • Title: Granuloma gravidarum of the nasal mucous membrane.
    Author: Skau NK, Pilgaard P, Neilsen G.
    Journal: J Laryngol Otol; 1987 Dec; 101(12):1286-8. PubMed ID: 3430051.
    Abstract:
    Granuloma gravidarum of the nasal mucous membrane is a rare benign tumour. Clinically it may appear as alarming bleeding with a rapidly growing, non-tender polyp producing nasal stenosis. A case is reported in a young healthy pregnant woman, who developed a granuloma gravidarum on the right side of her nasal septum, recurring several times after delivery in spite of extirpation. Histologically foamy histiocytes were present, which could represent a special feature of this type of tumour.
