Abstract

We report the case of a 57-year-old woman consulting because of a slow growing solid tumor in the right medial orbital rim associated with nasal obstruction, anosmia and posterior nasal drip. Clinical and radiological evaluation evidenced a large right frontoethmoidal osteoma involving the orbit and thelateral lamella of the cribriform plate, and chronic rhinosinusitis with polyps. A Draf III was performed to remove the osteoma and a bilateral functional endoscopic sinus surgery of the remaining sinuses was per- formed to treat thechronic rhinosinusitis. We described the case and discuss its relevant aspects.
