After surgical removal it was sent for histopathological examination and was diagnosed as dermoid cyst. Dermoid cyst is rarely encountered lesions of head and neck region so most frequently misdiagnosed.

Rhabdomyosarcoma comprises about half of the soft tissue tumors. Approximately 40% of the alveolar subtype occur in the head and neck region. Patients present with unilateral nasal mass with/without lymphadenopathy and with/without orbital manifestations. Diagnosis is aided radiologically by CT scan, MRI along with biopsy and is confirmed by immunohistochemistry. Treatment involves surgical resection, chemotherapy, radiotherapy or a combination of these. In spite of treatments, however, the outcome is poor. This is a case report of 14-year-old male who presented with unilateral nasal mass with proptosis of right eye who was eventually diagnosed as a case of alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma of solid variant.

ABSTRACT Rhinosporidiosis is a chronic granulomatous disorder caused by Rhinosporidium seeberi. It usually presents as a soft polypoidal pedunculated or sessile mass. Nose and nasopharynx are the commonly affected sites, but other sites, such as conjunctiva, the lips, palate, uvula, maxillary antrum, epiglottis, larynx, trachea, bronchus, ear, scalp, vulva, vagina, penis, and rectum, have been reported. However, cutaneous manifestation is rare. We report such a case of a 50-year-old male patient from rural south Odisha presenting to the ENT Department of SCB Medical College and Hospital, Cuttack, with multiple granulomatous growths of different sizes all over the body, along with a nasal mass, of 2½-year duration. He also gives history of a surgery on his nose 3 year back. Histopathology of the excised cutaneous and nasal lesions confirmed our diagnosis as rhinosporidiosis. On the basis of these clinical and histopathological findings, a diagnosis of nasal rhinosporidiosis with disseminated cutaneous spread was made. How to cite this article Ray CS, Joshi A, Khatua RK.
