[Adenoma pleomorphic (mixed tumor) in the nasal septum]
Abstract
A pleomorphic Adenoma was found in the right side of the nasal septum of a 44-year-old female patient. After removal the pathologist's examination could diagnose the mass as a pleomorphic adenoma (mixed tumor) developed from ectopic salivary glands. Early symptoms were nasal obstruction and recurrent spontaneous epistaxis, sometimes preceded by local discomfort. Surgical removal. In this article are discussed some aspects of the these unusual tumors (sitting in the nasal cavity) and the AA. compare their findings with data reported by other publishers.
