A rare recurrent sinus tumor

: The schneiderian papilloma, rare tumor of the nose and paranasal sinuses, have a marked predominance of men in the fourth or fifth decade of life. The most common symptom is an unilateral progressive nasal obstruction. Abnormal tissue in the nasal fossa is found in all cases. A capacity to destroy, a tendency to recur and an association with malignancy characterise this tumor with an obscure aetiology. Radical surgery is advocated as a treatment of choice, an adequate method is the lateral rhinotomy.
