It accounts for approximately 70% of all sinonasal papillomas and 0.5-4.0% of all sinonasal tract neoplasms. It often originates in the middle meatus of the lateral nasal wall and is well-known for its local invasiveness and high recurrence rate. Nasal obstruction, nasal bleeding, and diminished sense of smell are the most common symptoms. Hereby, authors report a case of 58-year-old male complaining of right nasal obstruction since 3 months. Patient had nasal growth for which he underwent nasal endoscopy. History revealed that he had similar growth on left side 10 years ago. A nasal endoscopic biopsy was performed and the histopathological examination show an inverted growth pattern from the sinonasal papilloma. Surgical techniques must be extensively explored and customised, with enhanced radiological assessment of tumour borders, in order to adequately re...
