Abstract:
Objective:This article reports a case of right sinonasal teratocarcinosarcoma. The patient was admitted to the hospital with symptoms of persistent nasal obstruction in both nostrils. Nasal endoscopy revealed the presence of new growths in the right nasal cavity and nasopharynx. Sinus CT imaging showed that the nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses, and nasopharynx were filled with soft tissue density shadows, with evidence of bone destruction. Transnasal endoscopic sinonasal surgery was performed, and postoperative pathology, along with immunohistochemical results, confirmed a diagnosis of sinonasal teratocarcinosarcoma. This case is analyzed, and relevant literature is reviewed.
