We describe the case of a 65-year-old woman who presented with left nasal obstruction. Clinical and radiographic examinations revealed the presence of a soft-tissue mass that had obliterated the left nasal cavity. The mass was completely excised via an endoscopic approach. Histopathologic examination identified the tumor as an ossifying fibrosarcoma. The patient recovered uneventfully and remained free of disease at the 2-year postoperative follow-up. To the best of our knowledge, no case of an ossifying fibrosarcoma of the nasal cavity has been previously reported in the English-language literature. We discuss the features of this case and the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and management of fibrosarcomas of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses.
我们报告一例65岁女性,其表现为左侧鼻塞。临床和影像学检查发现存在一个软组织肿块,该肿块已使左侧鼻腔闭塞。通过内镜手术将肿块完整切除。组织病理学检查将肿瘤确诊为骨化性纤维肉瘤。患者恢复顺利,术后2年随访无疾病复发。据我们所知,英文文献中此前尚无鼻腔骨化性纤维肉瘤病例的报道。我们讨论了该病例的特征以及鼻腔和鼻窦纤维肉瘤的临床表现、诊断和治疗。
