Juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma (JNA) is a pathologically benign yet locally aggressive and destructive tumor that develops in the choana and nasopharynx. Historical treatment of JNA has included embolization, surgical resection, and radiation. Here, we describe three patients who received therapy with the mTOR inhibitor sirolimus with improvement in clinical symptoms, imaging, and overall well-being.
