<p class="abstract">Pleomorphic adenomas (mixed tumors) are the most common benign tumor of the major salivary glands. In addition, they may also occur in the minor salivary glands of the hard and soft palate. Intranasal pleomorphic adenomas are unusual. We report a rare case of large sized pleomorphic adenoma arising from the nasal septum. A 42-year-old man presented with a 3 month history of multiple episodes of nasal bleeding and obstruction on right side of nose. On examination we found a non-tender firm mass extending upto the nasal vestibule which bled on probing. Computed tomographic scans revealed a mass in the right anterior nasal cavity and spur on left side. Paranasal sinuses, posterior choanae and nasopharynx were normal. An intranasal endoscopic approach was used to achieve a wide local resection along with coagulation of base and spurectomy on the left side. The mass was 2.5×2.0 cm with a broad based attachement of 1.0 cm on the nasal septum. The microscopic finding showed a lobular and duct-like structures consisting of a loose chondromyxoid stroma suggestive of a pleomorphic adenoma. Large sized nasal cavity mass with history of epistaxis and which bleeds on probing should be finally assessed under general anaesthesia. It should be excised endoscopically and subjected to histopathological examination<span lang="EN-IN">.</span></p>

ABSTRACT Pleomorphic adenoma is a common, benign tumor arising from the major salivary glands, most commonly from the parotid gland. In addition, they may also occur in the minor salivary glands of the hard and soft palate. Intranasal pleomorphic adenomas are unusual and may be misdiagnosed because they have greater myoepithelial cellularity and fewer myxoid stromata compared to those elsewhere. We report a case of pleomorphic adenoma of the nasal cavity arising from the nasal septum.

Pleomorphic Adenomas

Pleomorphic adenomas are the most common benign tumor of the major salivary glands. Other rare sites for the occurrence of pleomorphic adenoma have been described in the larynx, pharynx, nasal cavity, lacrimal glands and trachea. We report here a case of intranasal pleomorphic adenoma arising from the nasal septum causing nasal obstruction which was clinically diagnosed as papilloma. Histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of pleomorphic adenoma.

AbstractPleomorphic adenomas arising from sites other than the major or minor salivary glands are uncommon. We describe a case of pleomorphic adenoma in the subcutaneous tissue of the nasomaxillary crease. An identical tumour was previously excised from the right nasal cavity. The possible aetiology of these heterotopic salivary gland tumours is discussed.

Pleomorphic adenoma (PA) is a salivary gland tumor that may rarely occur in the nasal cavity. It can be a clinical diagnostic dilemma in many instances due to many possible differential diagnoses. We report the case of a 26-year-old female who presented with a 3-year history of a right nasal growth associated with ipsilateral nasal blockage, nasal pain, and rhinorrhea. Radiological image showed a mild enhancing lesion in the right nasal cavity. The patient underwent a lateral rhinotomy with wide excision of the mass. Histopathological exam was consistent with PA. Nasal PA is a rare entity and should be suspected as a diagnosis for intranasal tumors.

ABSTRACT Myoepithelioma is a rare tumor of the salivary glands. Only three cases of myoepithelioma in the nasal cavity have been reported. A 29-year-old male presented to us with epistaxis and nasal obstruction. There was a fleshy mass occupying the right middle meatus. Biopsy showed evidence of myoepithelioma and an endoscopic excision of the tumor was done. Histopathological examination of the resected tumor was consistent with myoepithelioma. Due to its rarity, the nature of the tumor is not known and regular follow-ups are needed for early detection of recurrence and malignancy. How to cite this article Ramesh D, Khong GC, Sumathi V.

ABSTRACT Pleomorphic adenomas occurring in the nasal cavity are rarely encountered; nevertheless, there is abundance of minor seromucinous glands in that region. Most cases present with a painless, slowly progressing unilateral nasal obstruction, a nasal mass, and epistaxis. Herewith, we present an unusual case of pleomorphic adenoma arising from the lateral wall of the right nasal cavity in a 41-year-old male who complained of right nasal obstruction with no history of epistaxis. Rigid nasal endoscopy revealed a swelling continuous with right inferior concha. Computed tomography showed a well-defined, soft tissue mass in the right nasal cavity. The lesion was completely excised endoscopically. Histopathology confirmed a pleomorphic adenoma consisting of epithelial and mesenchymal elements. Wide exposure is crucial for complete excision with negative margins to achieve positive outcome and to prevent recurrence. How to cite this article Pandey AK, Bhardwaj A, Maithani T, Rathi S.

A 50-year-old woman presented with a 30-year history of nasal obstruction. She had been treated for paranasal sinusitis at other hospitals and she was referred to our hospital for further examination. Flexible endoscopy revealed a mass in the posterior aspect of the right nasal cavity to the posterior aspect of the left nasal cavity around the posterior edge of the nasal septum.

10% of pleomorphic adenomas occur in the minor salivary glands with the palate being the most common site. Pleomorphic adenomas account for the majority of palatal tumours; however, minor salivary gland tumours have a higher risk of malignancy compared to tumours of the major salivary glands, so definite diagnostic evaluation should be executed. A case of 26-year-old man with a longstanding history of a soft palate pleomorphic adenoma which required excision under general anaesthetia We discuss the appropriate preoperative investigations, operative technique for surgical excision, histopathologic interpretation for this patient and brief review of literature for pleomorphic adenoma.
