Özet:

 

Nasal gliomas are rare, benign, congenital tumors that are throught to be the result of abnormality
 in embryonic development. Three types of clinical presentations have been recognized; extranasal,
 intranasal and combined. Clinically, these masses are non-pulsatile, gray or purple lesions that
 obstruct the nasal cavity and can lead to various complications. Histologically, they consist of
 astrocytic cells, fibrous and vascular connective tissue covered with nasal respiratory mucosa.
 Treatment of nasal glioma requires a multidisciplinary approach including a radiologist,
 neurosurgeon and otorhinolaryngologist. Radiological investigation should be performed to
 determine intracranial extension. This report describes a 60-year-old male undergoing endoscopy
 for nasal mass and postoperative pathology presenting as nasal glioma.
 To the best of our knowledge there are few published reports of adult glioma arising from the nasal
 cavity. The mass was excised totally using an endoscopic approach.
 We describe the clinical and histopathological features of this rare lesion, with a complete review
 of the relevant literature.
