ABSTRACT

Chondromyxoid fibroma is a rare benign tumor that usually occurs in the long bones. A 46-year-old female patient presented with masses in her nasal cavities the masses were subsequently diagnosed as a chondromyxoid fibroma. The masses originated from the inferior turbinate. Wide mass excision that included the turbinate and surrounding tissues was performed. No recurrence or new lesion was observed during the one-year follow-up. A diagnosis of chondromyxoid fibroma, that involves the head and neck is extremely rare. There are no reports of such masses arising from the nasal cavities of patients in our country. Furthermore, available literature does not discuss such masses originating from the inferior turbinate. In this paper, we report on a rare case of a very large-sized chondromyxoid fibroma within the nasal cavity of a patient; we also review the relevant literature.
