What Are the Different Types of Nasal Tumors?

Nasal tumors are tumors of the nasal cavity and sinuses, which are more common in malignancy. Most of benign tumors are papilloma and hemangioma. Most of the malignant tumors are cancers, and sarcomas are rare. The main symptom of nasal cavity and sinus papilloma is nasal congestion, and the surface of new organisms in the nose is papillary

Nasal tumors are tumors of the nasal cavity and sinuses, which are more common in malignancy. Most of benign tumors are papilloma and hemangioma. Most of the malignant tumors are cancers, and sarcomas are rare. The main symptom of nasal cavity and sinus papilloma is nasal congestion, and the surface of new organisms in the nose is papillary

Nasal tumor introduction

Bloody nose and nasal congestion in the nasal cavity, swelling and numbness of the face, suggestive of nasal or sinus cancer, unless other conditions have been proven.

An exogenous papilloma is a squamous cell papilloma with branched surfaces and vascular connective tissue with finger-like protrusions. Papilloma in the nasal cavity often requires repeated removal, but it has a benign course. Squamous tumors are squamous cell papilloma with epithelial cells extending into the connective tissue matrix of blood vessels. They are invasive and manifest as local malignant changes; in a procedure called nasal incision, more normal must be removed. The surgical margin of the tissue and the bone wall outside the nasal cavity.

Other benign tumors that occur in the nasal cavity are fibroids, hemangiomas, and neurofibromas. Fibroids, schwannomas, and osteofibromas occur in the sinuses.

Squamous cell carcinoma is the most common malignant tumor of the nose and sinuses; others are adenoid cystic carcinoma and mucinous epithelioid carcinoma, malignant mixed tumor, adenocarcinoma, lymphoma, fibrosarcoma, osteosarcoma, chondrosarcoma and melanoma. Tumors are the most common metastatic tumor of the sinuses. Radical surgical resection of the primary tumor combined with radiotherapy can achieve the best survival rate.

Clinical manifestations of nasal tumors

Nosebleeds are an early symptom of this disease, which is caused by infection and rupture of cancerous foci. Especially in the early morning, spitting or blowing the nose are often bloodshot in the nose. With the development of the disease, it can be seen that the amount of bleeding increases, and sometimes the bleeding cannot be stopped. When the cancer infiltrates into the surrounding area and causes local infection or edema, it often causes posterior nostril obstruction. At this time, patients often show nasal obstruction, headache, and even tinnitus. Most advanced cancers destroy the skull base or invade cranial nerves, causing persistent headaches, and even accompanied by nausea and vomiting.

Early signs:

1. Unexplained nasal obstruction and poor ventilation. No improvement after biotherapy.

2. A small or spotted bleeding occurs in the unilateral cavity, and sometimes there is blood in the nasal discharge or early morning nosebleeds.
