Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma of the Nasal Septum

Abstract

Nasal cavity and paranasal sinus cancers are less commonly detected tumors of the head and neck region. Within this region, the nasal septum is a rare location for the occurrence of such malignant tumors. Adenoid cystic carcinoma of the nasal septum can be detected as a polypoid mass without any significant finding. We intend to present a case of adenoid cystic carcinoma of the nasal septum which was successfully treated with surgical excision and radiotherapy.
