[Two cases of nasal rhinosporidiosis].
The rhinosporidiosis is an illness caused by Rhinosporidium Seeber, which affects not only the man but also other animals. The usual pattern of manifestations are located and characterized either by the development of big polyps, tumours, papillomas or wart lesions. These lesions are soft and hyperplastic, highly vascular and they can be fixed or pedunculated. Our study reports two cases in young people, from the same geographical area, who showed papillomatoses tumours in the nasal cavity. The diagnoses of rhinosporidiosis nasal was done through a histopathological study.
