Abstract
A 17-year-old male in good general health complained of nasal obstruction and bleeding. Rhinoscopy revealed a dark red tumor with irregular surface in the left nasal cavity.
The tumor, 3.0×1.5×1.5cm in size, was surgically removed by an intranasal approach under general anesthesia from the upper part of the nasal septum.
The histological diagnosis was pleomorphic adenoma of the nasal septum.
This is a very rare tumor. Although no recurrence has been observed so far, careful follow-up for a longer period is necessary.
