A mongreld og 2yearsa nd 4months oldw as submittewdi thm ajors ignos fp ersistebnlte edingfrom the nostril and slight deformity of the nasal cavity.
A diagnosis of nasal and paranasal sarcoma was made in it from the clinical signs, roentgenography, cytological observation of a nasal excretion, and histological examination of bioptic materials from the mass in the nasal cavity.
This tumor was invading from the right nasal cavity into the nasal hone, turbinates, nasal septum, maxillary and frontal sinuses.
No complete extirpation of the tumor and involved tissues could be made by curettage, which could not be performedin the deep and narrow parts of the maxillary and frontal sinuses. Therefore, x-ray radiation was applied to the remainder of the tumor cells.
About one year and 3months after the treatment, roentgenography and cytological examination of nasal swabs revealed no recurrence of the condition.
