Introduction :
Seromucinous hamartoma is a rare benign lesion of the sinonasal tract, composed of proliferation of seromucinous glands and ducts within a variable fibrous stroma.
Case Report :
This report is about a 58 year old female patient who presented with a fleshy mass extending upto the floor of the left nasal cavity. After its endoscopic excision, histopathological examination revealed a seromucinous hamartoma which was confirmed by immunohistochemistry.
Discussion:
Seromucinous hamartoma is a rare entity of the nasal cavity which arise on the septum or nasopharynx and rarely from lateral wall and sinuses. 19 cases have been reported world wide so far. Hence a correct diagnosis, based on histopathological study along with immunohistochemistry is necessary for appropriate and accurate management. Early intervention with surgery and radiotherapy is required to avoid recurrence.
