Ectopic complex odontoma of the nasal cavity: A rare case
چکیده انگلیسی

Previous reports suggest that the most common location of the odontomas are in the maxilla. Among the ectopic odontoma, the nasal ectopic odontomas are rare, and are usually asymptomatic. Here, we present a rare case of an ectopic complex odontoma in the lower nasal turbinate causing nasal obstruction and bleeding, which was removed surgically. A 33-year-old male patient presented to our hospital with chief symptoms of nasal obstruction and bleeding from the nose. The Computed Tomography (CT) image of head and neck showed an irregular radio opaque mass in the lower nasal turbinate. The endoscopic examination revealed part of the tumor resembling toothlet. From the above findings, clinical diagnosis of odontoma was made. Histological examination of the mass confirmed the diagnosis of complex odontoma. The symptoms of obstruction and bleeding was averted by surgical removal of the mass.
