الوصف: | Introduction Sinonasal polyps, presenting as mass lesion of nose and paranasal sinuses ranges pathologic entity including infective diseases to malignant lesions. 80% are non-neoplastic lesions and less than 1% are malignant. They all present with symptoms of nasal stuffiness or obstruction and mass lesion, producing significant diagnostic challenges as they possess extremely varied clinical behaviour, etiopathogenesis, treatment protocol as well as prognosis. Case Series During period of one year (March 2017 to February 2018), we had six patients presenting with nasal polyp having special features that need attention. After proper investigation each case was operated and gross examination followed by histopathology was done. They revealed six different diagnoses e.g., Olfactory neuroblastoma, Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma, Basal Cell Adenocarcinoma, Sinonasal Mucosal Melanoma, Primitive Neuroectodermal Tumour (PNET) and Aspergilloma. Discussion Clinicians’ attention is drawn to the fact that, similar presentation may have varied differential diagnoses, some of which may be very rare and histopathology is essential for coming to definitive diagnosis. |
