BENIGN SOFT TISSUE TUMORS
Hemangioma
■ Benign vascular tumors. Unlike soft tissue hemangioma elsewhere in
the head and neck region, SN hemangiomas are uncommon lesions.

■ Most of these are in nasal cavity, and less frequently in sinuses.
■ Seen in young patients.
■ Imaging:
• Expansile lesions with bone remodeling/focal erosions. Sclerosis may
also be seen. However, lesions can be aggressive with signicant bone
destruction.
7
• Contrast enhancement can be variable—Intense or scattered nodular
with gradual ll-in, depending on the amount of brosis/hemorrhage
vs the vascular proliferation (Figs. 12.6A to D).
• Calcication may be seen.
• MRI is nonspecic. It appears hyperintense on T2WI and hypointense
on T1WI.
• Intraosseous hemangioma (Figs. 12.7A and B) reveal an expansile
lesion (sun-burst appearance) which is of mixed density but welldened. e nonossied component shows enhancement.

• Also see Chapter 20 for imaging features of hemangiomas in the
pediatric age group.
■ Dierential Diagnosis:
• Should be suspected in any young patient presenting with enhancing
nasal cavity mass. However, in the sinuses the dierential is more
wide depending on the location, especially in those forms with more
brous component or more with aggressive behavior.
167Chapter 12 Benign Tumors of the Nose and Paranasal Sinuses: Imaging
■ e benign tumors (Figs. 12.8A to C) include schwannomas (from the
Schwann cells) and neurobroma.
1
Schwannoma
■ Rare SN tumors; arise in relation to trigeminal nerve branches.
■ Soft tissue masses which are often heterogeneous with areas of necrosis.
■ Bone expansion and remodeling is seen, while presence of bone erosion
alerts to possible malignant change.
■ MRI: ese appear hypertense on T2WI.
Neurobromas
■ More well-dened, homogenous lesions which may cause expansion
(Figs. 12.9A to C).
■ Plexiform types seen in patients of neurobromatosis.
For those lesions occuring in the root of nose/ethmoids please see
Chapters 20 and 23.

BENIGN TUMORS OF BONE AND CARTILAGE
Giant Cell Lesions
■ Include giant cell tumors (GCT), Giant cell reparative granuloma
(GCRG), Brown tumors, Aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC).
■ Have hemosiderin content which shows blooming on the gradient
sequences.
■ Parathormone (PTH) levels should be ascertained in giant cell lesions.
Giant Cell Reparative Granuloma
■ Common sites are mandible/maxilla, infrequently seen involving sinonasal cavity.
■ Hypothesis of origin: It is a reactive response to hemorrhage which
occurs within the bone consequent to trauma/chronic inammation.
■ Age: Young adults, females > males.
■ Imaging ndings (Figs. 12.10A to C): Nonspecic.
■ CT Scan:

• Soft tissue masses with bone erosion.
• Cystic/hemorrhagic foci may be seen within. Expansile but can be
aggressive.
• Erosion of nasal septum, ethmoid bones, sphenoid bones and even
cribriform plate/clivus may be seen.
■ MRI:
• Both T1WI, T2WI reveal a heterogeneous signal intensity.
• Contrast enhancement is also heterogeneous.
■ Treatment: Intralesional steroids or calcitonin are used. Occasionally
surgery is required.
Giant Cell Tumor
■ ese are also rare tumors in the sinonasal cavity and are usually benign.
■ GCT can occasionally show aggressive behavior and metastasize.
■ Imaging (Figs. 12.11A and B):
• CT: Appear as multilocular lesions with uid levels.
• MRI: Low signal intensity on all sequences with moderate degree of
post contrast enhancement.

Aneurysmal Bone Cyst (ABC)
■ ABC usually develops secondarily within another tumor. Primary ABC in
sinonasal masses is far less common than secondary ABC.
■ Appear as expansile mixed density/lytic lesions on CT.

• Multipleuid-uidlevels(arrow).
■ As elsewhere, blood-uid levels are characteristic of ABC (Figs. 12.12A
and B).
■ Gradient sequences maybe used to demonstrate hemosiderin content
within the lesion.
Osteoma
■ Common benign SN tumor.
■ Often incidentally detected lesions.
■ However depending on location, may cause obstruction of sinus drainage
pathways resulting in accumulation of secretions.
■ ere are reported cases of large lesions with skull base erosions and
resultant CSF leak.
■ Common sites: Ethmoid or frontal sinuses.
■ CT: Well-dened high density lesions (Figs. 12.13A to C). e density will
depend upon whether the composition of the lesion is predominantly
brous tissue, spongy bone or compact bone, with respectively increasing
density.
■ MRI: Hypo/isointense on T2 weighted sequences.
1
Osteoblastoma
■ Osteoblastoma is rare in the craniofacial region, being more frequent in
the vertebral column and long bones.
■ In the paranasal sinuses, its description in literature is conned to case
reports.
■ It occurs in young patients (<30 years of age), with no sex predilection.
■ Imaging:
• Plain radiographs and CT scan: Expansile masses with mixed appea-

rance of dense sclerotic component, and a nonossied component
(brous on histopathology). Causes bone remodeling.

NCCT.
• Large, lobulated dense bony mass
(arrow)
• Expansion of right frontal and ethmoid
sinuses
• Obstruction of frontonasal drainage path-
way(asterisksinBandC).
• On MRI, while the sclerotic component is a signal void, the brotic
component can show intermediate signal intensity on T1 and T2WI
with intense enhancement.
■ Dierential Diagnosis: Osteogenesis imperfecta, GCT, osteoid osteoma,
brous dysplasia:
• Fibrous dysplasia: In FD, the sclerotic component is more homo-
genous, while it is more nodular in osteoblastoma.
• On CEMR: FD shows marginal enhancement. Osteoblastoma shows
more uniform enhancement.
■ On HPE, osteoblastoma is similar to an osteoid osteoma with only
dierentiating point being size (1.5 cm cut-o).
BENIGN GERM CELL TUMORS
Mature Teratoma
■ Uncommon benign germ cell tumor of the nasal cavity and paranasal
sinuses.
■ Shows the typical imaging morphology of teratomas elsewhere in the body.
■ Characteristic presence of soft tissue density lesion with internal fat, uid
and calcication.
