Esthésioneuroblastome

We report the imaging aspects of esthesioneuroblastomas, illustrated with two new observations in 52- and 17-year-old patients with uneventful histories, who had consulted for rhinological symptoms (epistaxis, nasal obstruction, anosmia). The diagnosis was based on the CT scan of the facial bones, followed by biopsy and pathology study. We emphasize the importance of medical imaging for early diagnosis of this particular type of nerve tumor.
