Abstract

Pleomorphic adenoma is a common benign tumour of the salivary gland that has elements of both epithelial and mesenchymal tissue. It is commonly seen in major salivary glands, parotid being the most common site followed by submandibular gland. However it can sometimes arise from minor salivary glands that are distributed throughout the upper aerodigestive tract and paranasal sinuses. We report a case of a 45 yrs. Old male patient, who presented with progressive nasal blockage and intermittent minor episodes of epistaxis from left nostril for 1 ½ years. Lateral Rhinotomy revealed a well encapsulated lesion attached to the nasal septum, which was excised completely. Histopathology revealed it to be Pleomorphic Adenoma without any features of malignancy. Lesion is a rare one hence reported.
