A sinonasal angioleiomyoma is a rare benign tumor of the nasal cavity [1, 2]. Angioleiomyoma is composed of smooth muscles around vascular spaces [3, 4]. The most common locations in the head and neck region include the nasal cavity, lip and auricle [3]. The first described case was reported in 1966 by Maesaka et al. [2].
