The Natural History, Pathogenesis, and Treatment of Juvenile Angiofibroma: Personal Experience With 44 Patients

The Natural History, Pathogenesis, and Treatment of Juvenile Angiofibroma: Personal Experience... Abstract • The lessons learned from the personal care of 44 male patients suffering from juvenile angiofibroma are discussed with reference to natural history, pathogenesis, and principles of management. Many of the doctrines often accepted as based on factual evidence are discussed in relation to actual experience. In this manner, a rational view of this interesting but unusual condition is presented in the hope that some of the more bizarre opinions may now be abandoned to the benefit of future patients.
