This study reports the first known case of nasal lipoma in an adult, a benign tumor found on the nasal septum. The patient underwent successful endoscopic surgery for this rare nasal cavity tumor.

Area of Science:

  • Otorhinolaryngology (ENT)
  • Surgical Pathology
  • Head and Neck Oncology

Background:

  • Lipomas are benign tumors of adipose tissue.
  • Nasal cavity and paranasal sinus lipomas are rare, with few documented cases.
  • Previous reports have not specified adult nasal septum lipomas.

Observation:

  • A 21-year-old adult presented with a lipoma on the left posterior nasal septum.
  • The tumor was surgically removed using endoscopic techniques.
  • Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of lipoma.

Findings:

  • This case represents the first documented instance of a nasal lipoma in an adult patient.
  • Endoscopic resection proved effective for this specific nasal lipoma location.
  • The benign nature of the tumor was confirmed post-operatively.

Implications:

  • Highlights the possibility of adult nasal septum lipomas, previously unreported.
  • Demonstrates the feasibility and efficacy of endoscopic management for nasal lipomas.
  • Contributes to the understanding of rare benign tumors in the sinonasal region.
