ABSTRACT
@#Dear Editor, Papillomas are primary benign epithelial neoplasms producing finger–like projections that typically cover fibrous stalks.1 The term Inverted Papilloma (IP) describes the endophytic projection of epithelium into the stroma. Also known as Schneiderian papillomas, IPs predominantly affect males in the 6th decade.2 They usually arise from the lateral nasal wall and seldom involve the frontal or sphenoid sinuses.2 The frequency of IP on the nasal septum is even less.3 We report a case of IP of the nasal septum and the role of endoscopic resection of the IP without any sign of recurrence.
