| Abstrakt: | Introduction: We introduce the third case reported in the literature of an atypical presentation of pleomorphic adenoma located in the nasal vestibule of a young patient who assisted at our clinic. Case Report: A young man with no important medical history consulted due to a painless mass-type slow-growth lesion associated with right nasal obstruction. He underwent surgical management and complete resection of the mass. The pathological study revealed a pleomorphic adenoma, confirmed by immunohistochemistry. Conclusion: This case confirms that pleomorphic adenomas can occur anywhere in the head and neck, even in areas without upper air-digestive tract mucosa. |
