[Hypertelorism and an unclear sinonasal mass].
An 88-year-old female patient presented at our ENT clinic following syncope for consultation regarding dyspnea. Nasal breathing and olfactory function had been absent for several decades. The nose was distended and showed a livid red, smooth invasive mass. Childhood onset of nasal polyposis was reported. In addition, hypertelorism and bilateral epiphora were present. Although the patient declined treatment, it was possible to establish the clinical diagnosis of a Woakes' syndrome.
