Abstract
|
|
|
Pleomorphic adenoma occurs primarily in the major salivary glands, but very rarely in thenose. Treatment of nasal pleomorphic adenoma, like pleomorphic adenoma of the major salivarygland, is also a complete resection. Since most are confined to the nasal cavity and do notinvade cartilage or other tissues, it can be removed relatively simply by nasal endoscopic surgery.
We report a case where a pleomorphic adenoma arising from the right nasal ala invadesthe lateral crus of lower lateral cartilage, where a part of the cartilage was excised along withremoval of the tumor and reconstructed with nasal septal cartilage. Eight months after surgery, the external deformity of nose was not observed and there was no recurrence.
