Abstract

Pleomorphic adenoma (PA) most commonly manifests in the parotid gland, though it occasionally emerges in atypical locations. We present a case involving an 87-year-old female who exhibited chronic left-sided nasal symptoms, leading to the diagnosis of PA in the nasal cavity. This diagnosis was confirmed through rhinoscopy and subsequent pathological examination following the surgical excision of an 8x8 mm mass. The procedure, which included tumor-based cautery, alleviated her symptoms effectively. A follow-up strategy was established to monitor for any signs of recurrence. The patient has shown no signs of recurrence at subsequent three-month follow-up visits, highlighting the success of the intervention. This case underscores the importance of early recognition and intervention in atypical presentations of PA, which is crucial to prevent potential complications and ensure favorable outcomes.
