| Popis: | The patient was a 54-year-old woman who had been suffering from chronic tubulo-interstitial nephritis for about seven years, requiring haemodialysis. More recently, she developed a polypoid mass in the left nasal cavity causing discomfort on breathing and slight epistaxis. The tumour was of gritty consistency and measured 28 × 8 × 5 mm. Microscopy showed a lobulated almost cystic structure composed of granulation tissue with comparatively few plasma cells and many multinucleated giant cells lining the spaces filled with crystalline deposits of calcium oxalate. |
