Abstract

Schwannoma rarely involves the sinonasal tract and inferior turbinate involvement is very rare. Usually it is symptomatic and surgical excision is a successful treatment. Here we presented an incidentally discovered inferior turbinate schwannoma in an asymptomatic middle age female patient. Along with a high index of suspicion, radiological evaluation followed by a biopsy is needed to diagnose this disease as well as any unilateral nasal mass. More cases of incidentally diagnosed schwannoma may rise in the era of rapidly advancing medical technology and extensive radiological workup.

Keywords: Schwannoma of inferior turbinate, Neurilemmoma of inferior turbinate, Nasal schwannoma.
