Abstract :

Nasal mass is a commonest presenting feature of patients attending ENT (Ear, Nose and Throat) outpatients department. Nasal mass can be solid, cystic, fungating, non–fungating, soft or hard. Further, they can be benign or malignant. Nasal polyps are common, non–cancerous, teardrop–shaped growth that form in the nose sinuses and mostly occurs where the sinuses open into the nasal cavity. At the mature stage this nasal polyps have seen as peeled grapes. They can arise from nasal septum, floor, lateral wall, and roof of the nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses, nasopharynx or herniation from cranium. The close anatomical relationship between nasal passages and adjacent sinuses result in rapid involvement of one from another. Most suffering patients complain of nasal obstruction. Nasal polyps study was undertaken to note the various histopathological patterns of nasal masses, their classification and relative distribution of various lesions with regard to age and sex in our experiment. Nasal obstruction and rhinorrhea are the most common symptoms of presentation, simple inflammatory nasal polyps are the most common histological pattern seen in our environment, and surgery is the best modality of treatment
