Respiratory epithelial adenomatoid hamartoma (REAH) is a recently described entity consisted of benign glandular proliferations lined by pseudostratified respiratory epithelium. We report a case of a 22-year-old male patient with 7-year history of nasal obstruction and headache resulting from a huge left-sided nasal lesion. Computed tomography, magnetic resonance and biopsy were performed to make a provisional diagnosis of REAH originating from the left-sided inferior turbinate. The definitive diagnosis of REAH was made by histopathological examination of the removed mass. We also discuss the origin and differential diagnosis of these rare lesions.
呼吸道上皮腺样错构瘤(REAH)是一种最近才被描述的病变,由假复层呼吸道上皮衬里的良性腺体增生组成。我们报告一例22岁男性患者,因左侧巨大鼻腔病变导致鼻塞和头痛7年。进行了计算机断层扫描、磁共振成像和活检,初步诊断为起源于左侧下鼻甲的REAH。通过对切除肿块的组织病理学检查确诊为REAH。我们还讨论了这些罕见病变的起源和鉴别诊断。
