Abstract

Pleomorphic adenoma (PA) is the most common benign salivary gland tumor of which parotid gland involvement is the most common. PA may arise from minor salivary glands as well, however, PA is very rare in the sinonasal and nasopharyngeal areas. It usually affects middle aged females. They are frequently misdiagnosed due to high cellularity and myxoid stroma, leading to delay in diagnosis & further appropriate management. Here we present a case report of a female who presented with gradually progressive nasal obstruction, on examination found to have a nasal mass in right nasal cavity. Imaging was done and the nasal mass was excised. Histopathological report revealed a PA. Common tumor in an uncommon location: Pleomorphic adenoma of the nasal cavity - a case report.
