Abstract |
The authors present 8 cases of rare tumors of the nasal septum and define a number of characteristic points on the basis of each of them. The following are presented: --a malignant nevus, the rarety of E.N.T. sites of such tumors is emphasized, as well as important role of immunotherapy in their treatment, alongside surgery and radio- therapy. --a keratoacanthoma, difficult in terms of differential diagnosis from a basal cell carcinoma. -- a cavernous hemangioma, excision of which must be wide if recurrence is to be avoided. --one very hemorrhagic mixed tumor. --one case of pseudo tumoral tuberculosis in a woman with no known past history of tuberculous disease. --one very painful glomus tumor, radical treatment of which is surgical, in preference to radiotherapy. --two cylindromas of the septum, one taking the form of a large, angiomatous polyp, which puts in question the name of cystic adenoid carcinoma, suggested for these non-cutaneous tumors.
