[Mucinous cystadenoma of a minor salivary gland of the nasal fossa].
Tumors of minor nasal salivary glands are relatively sparse. The case reported is a monomorph adenoma of benign character, which first clinical diagnosis mimicked a naso-sinusal polyposis. Examination of the removed piece by functional endoscopic surgery firstly was considered as an adenocarcinoma of low malignity degree but afterwards resulted as a mucinous cysto-adenoma of minor salivary glands with favorable clinical behaviour.
