ABSTRACT
Soft tissue sarcoma of the head and neck is a rare and heterogenous group of malignant tumors. Especially, adult soft tissue sarcomas occur rarely in nasal cavity and paranasal sinus. They are, when poorly differentiated, termed as pleomorphic sarcoma, spindle cell sarcoma, or malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) like tumor. The main stay of the treatment of adult soft tissue sarcomas is surgical resection with negative margin. Tumor grade, tumor size and extension of local infiltration are recognized prognostic factors, but classification of histologic type appears to have less prognostic significance. In case of uncontrolled locoregional disease, it often results in death due to intracranial extension. We report a case of a 68-year-old female with locoregional high grade pleomorphic sarcoma in the nasal cavity. This tumor was managed by wide local excision of tumor with negative margin.
