Abstract
Role of Embolisation in preoperative management of Nasopharyngeal angiofibroma is well established in present day therapeutic modalities. An improvised technique i.e., subselective embolisation has been provided by Interventional radiologists to fortify the therapeutic results. This study compares the final outcome of seven cases, four of which were embolised pre operatively. Each case was dealt with varying surgical approaches.
