Benign nasal schwannoma.
Nerve sheath tumours of the head and neck region mainly involve the eighth cranial nerve with only 4 per cent occurring in the paranasal sinuses. Only 32 cases of benign schwannomas occurring in the paranasal sinuses have been reported. We present a further case, review the current literature, and discuss the clinical details and specific histological features.
