Schneiderian Papilloma: A Rare Case Report
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Medical Case Reports - Year 2013, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
The nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses, and nasopharynx are sites for a wide variety of tumors and non neoplastic conditions. Inverted papilloma accounts for about 0.5-4% of total nose and paranasal sinus tumours. Men are affected 4 times more often than women. The major types are fungiform papilloma, inverted papilloma, and oncocytic Schneiderian papilloma. The latter has often been referred to as cylindrical-cell papilloma, whereas fungiform papilloma and inverted papilloma have often been called transitional cell papilloma or papillomatosis. We have come across a case of Schneiderian papilloma in a 50 yr. old male with h/o recurrent nasal bleeding and mass in the nasal cavity. Because of its rarity and the aggressive growth, high recurrence rate, invasive capacity and malignant potential, it is important to make a proper diagnosis.
