✦ Synopsis

The usefulness of embolization of one or several feeding arteries before surgical removal of nasopharyngeal angiofibroma has been proven. However, there are two questions which remain: (a) At what point should the embolization stop? (B) What is the optimal delay between embolization and operation? These questions are discussed but not resolved.
