title: Schwannoma Originating From the Nasal Septum.
abstract: Schwannomas are benign tumors deriving from Schwann cells of the nerve sheath. They can occur in all parts of the body. Involvement of the nasal septum is quite rare, with only few cases having been reported in the literature. The authors present a patient with a unilateral tumor diagnosed as a schwannoma of the nasal septum.
