Abstract EN
Isolated or solitary neurofibromas of the paranasal sinuses are rare.
Mostly, they involve the maxillary sinus and so far, a solitary neurofibroma of the frontal sinus has never been reported in the literature.
We present a case of frontal sinus neurofibroma treated successfully with surgical excision.
A 28-year-old male presented with forehead swelling and computed tomography images revealed a tumor involving the left frontal sinus.
Histopathological examination showed the tumor to be a neurofibroma.
We discuss the clinical and pathological characteristics of neurofibroma arising in the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses.
