A large number of diseases affecting these structures are due, to many of the specialized tissues, each with its own aberrations that exist in the region. Methods- The study was conducted in the department of Pathology, Sardar Patel Medical College, Bikaner , over a period of 5 years both retrospectively and prospectively.

Results- The incidence of lesions in nasal cavity (NC) and PNS was 28.6 cases per year. Out of total 143 nose and PNS biopsy cases, 50(34.97%) were Neoplastic lesion and 93(65.03%) Non-neoplastic lesions. Out of 50 neoplastic lesion, 33(66.00%) were benign and 17(34.00%) malignant.
