Juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma is a benign vascular neoplasm, but it is locally aggressive. This accounts for less than 0.5% of all the neoplasm in the head & neck region in the male population only. Here we report a case of 10-year-old boy with a blackish red smooth polypoidal mass in the nasal cavity, with history of recurrent epistaxis. On physical examination it was suspected as nasopharyngeal angiofibroma. We removed it totally by lateral rhinotomy approach. And the diagnosis was nasopharyngeal angiofibroma on histopathology.

Malignant tumors of the nasal cavity are rare. We report the case of an elderly woman who consulted us with a 4-year history of progressive nasal obstruction, occasional epistaxis, facial pain, and watering of the eyes. A diagnosis of olfactory neuroblastoma was established by histopathology and confirmed by immunohistochemistry. On staging, the mass was classified as a Kadish stage B tumor. The mass was excised via a lateral rhinotomy approach, and the tumor was peeled away completely from the cribriform plate with endoscopes. The patient underwent postoperative radiation, and she was free of recurrence at follow-up 15 months later.

The operation of lateral rhinotomy does not perhaps receive as much attention as it might, despite the excellent exposure of the nasal passages and surrounding anatomy that can be obtained. A personal account of 100 consecutive operations for varying pathology is described in the hope that more surgeons may be aware of the value of this procedure.

AbstractOsteomas are common benign tumours of the paranasal sinuses, but are usually asymptomatic and found as a coincidental finding during routine radiological investigations. We present a case report of a patient with an isolated osteoma of the middle turbinate presenting with unilateral nasal obstruction which required removal via a lateral rhinotomy approach. The aetiology, pathology and presenting features of these tumours are reviewed and their subsequent management discussed. In particular, adequate pre-operative radiological assessment to determine involvement of the cribriform plate region by computerized axial tomography (CAT Scanning) is emphasized since this may indicate the need for a cranio-facial surgical approach rather than a lateral rhinotomy to achieve complete removal.

Primary “colonic type” tumors of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses are adenocarcinomas with histologic features similar to those of colonic cancers. Their behavior is one of local invasion and recurrence. Unlike tumors of the colon, they rarely metastasize. Surgical resection by means of lateral rhinotomy with or without radiation is the treatment of choice. Prognosis is poor. This type of tumor should be recognized by pathologists and its implications should be known to head and neck surgeons.

ABSTRACT Sinonasal teratocarcinosarcoma is a rare tumor of the paranasal sinuses, that shows combined features of both malignant teratoma and carcinosarcoma. It was earlier called teratoid carcinosarcoma or blastoma or teratocarcinoma or malignant teratoma. Its pecularity is its highly aggressive nature with a 5 years survival rate of 45% with treatment according to published statistics. Its treatment modality is a combination of surgery and radiotherapy. Here, we report one such case who presented with a history of one episode of torrential bleeding from left nostril and nasal obstruction for 3 months for which total excision of the tumor was done by endoscopic-assisted left lateral rhinotomy approach. Histopathology and Immunohistochemistry confirmed the diagnosis of sinonasal teratocarcinosarcoma and she was subsequently administered radiotherapy postoperatively.

AbstractHaemangiopericytoma (HPC) is a rare vascular tumour produced by proliferation of pericytes. One hundred and thirty-three cases of HPC have been reported in the nose and the paranasal sinuses. We present two more cases. Wide surgical excision via lateral rhinotomy, midfacial degloving, or endonasal removal is the treatment of choice. Radiotherapy has been used post-operatively in cases of incomplete removal. Life-long follow-up is required to evaluate local recurrence and late metastases.
