Abstract
|
|
|
|
Schwannoma is benign neoplasm arising from Schwann cells of peripheral, cranial and autonomic nerves. Schwannomas of the head and neck comprise 25% to 45% of all schwannomas; however, nasal and paranasal schwannomas account for 4% of these tumors. We experienced recently a case of 41-year-old female who had mass of right nasal cavity verified as schwanomma which was surgically removed with good outcome. We report this unusually presenting case of schwannoma of nasal cavity with the review of literatures.
