Abstract
Juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibromas are benign tumors occurring almost exclusively in adolescent males. Recent advances in radiographic imaging techniques allow for more accurate preoperative staging, especially in regard to skull base involvement. Recognition of the extent of the tumor before surgical extirpation reduces the risk of recurrence.
