[Pleomorphic adenomas of the nasal cavity].
The authors presents three cases of pleomorphic adenoma of the nasal cavity treated in the ENT Department, Medical University of Gdańsk in years 1974-2002. That material was also extended in analysis of fourth case treated in our Department and described earlier. In that group were three men and one woman in age of 31-62 years. The most common symptoms were unilateral nasal obstruction, headache or feel of expansion in the nose lasted from 3 months to 10 years. In three cases the tumor was localized in the nasal septum and in one case on the lower nasal concha. All cases were treated surgically--in three cases the lateral rhinotomy was performed and in one case--subperichondral excision of the tumor. In none of cases the recurrence was observed. The authors reviewed polish references and found four cases of these tumor localized in the nasal cavity. This material extended of our cases served to the attempt of epidemiological-clinical evaluation of these tumors.
