Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Respiratory epithelial adenomatoid hamartoma (REAH) is a rare sinonasal tumor.
  • It is crucial to consider REAH in the differential diagnosis of expansile sinonasal lesions.

Observation:

  • A case of frontal sinus hamartoma is presented.
  • This benign process can be locally aggressive if left untreated, leading to significant morbidity.

Findings:

  • REAH is generally cured with conservative surgical resection.
  • Frontal sinus involvement may necessitate skull base surgery techniques for orbital and intracranial extension.

Implications:

  • Early diagnosis and surgical management of REAH are essential.
  • Understanding potential local aggressiveness and extension is key for effective treatment planning.
