Abstract
Background: A 42-year-old woman was referred to the department of Head and Neck Surgery, because of left sided nasal obstruction and foul smell. She underwent an endoscopic investigation of the nasal cavities, during which a brown-grayish mass was noted resting on the floor of the left nasal cavity.
