Özet

A case of nasal tip Schwannoma is presented in this paper. Schwannoma is usually a benign neoplasm which is composed of Schwann cells. A 14-year-old boy had suffered from progressive swelling of the nasal tip over 4 months. Computed tomography showed a large soft tissue density in the nasal tip. The mass was resected using an external rhinoplasty approach, and the pathologic diagnosis was Schwannoma. Here, we present this case and discuss the clinical and pathological aspects of Schwannoma arising in the nasal tip.
