Abstract: Lymphoepithelial carcinoma is a histologic variant of squamous cell carcinoma was first reported by Regaud and Schmincke independently. Lymphoepithelial carcinoma mainly occurs in the nasopharynx. Rarely, tumour with same histomorphologic features has been described in the sinonasal tract. Due to the paucity of reported cases, there is no precise detailing of its management.
