Pleomorphic adenoma of the nasal septum

The objective of this article is to elucidate on our experience with the first case reported in the literature of a synchronous presentation of pleomorphic adenoma (PA) in infratemporal fossa as well as the contralateral submandibular gland. PA most commonly arises from the major salivary glands but has also been reported to arise from minor salivary glands in unusual sites such as the nasal septum, main stem bronchus, trachea, lacrimal gland, external auditory canal, etc. However, it seldom involves the infratemporal fossa and extremely few cases are reported in the literature and coexistent contralateral synchronous PA is nowhere reported in literature. The infratemporal fossa tumour posed a diagnostic dilemma and therapeutic challenge because of its concealed location which we dealt successfully with endoscopic sublabial trans maxillary approach.

Major Salivary Glands

ABSTRACT Pleomorphic adenoma is a benign tumor arising from major salivary glands and also has been reported in salivary glands of palate rarely in nasopharynx, oropharynx and larynx and lacrimal glands. We report a case pleomorphic adenoma of nasal septum and discuss the clinical features, management along with review of literature. How to cite this article Patil VM, Patil RM, Kushtagi AV.

Upper Aerodigestive Tract

AbstractPleomorphic adenoma is the commonest benign tumour of the major salivary glands. It can also occur in minor salivary glands, mainly in the oral cavity, but also in other sites in the head and neck both within and outwith the upper aerodigestive tract. We present a rare case of pleomorphic adenoma of the nasal septum with consideration of the clinical management and a review of the literature.
