ABSTRACT
Sinonasal teratocarcinosarcoma is extremely invasive malignant tumor that has a histological characteristic of having both more than one epithelial and mesothelial tissue components. It is a rare cancer of having less than 50 cases reported until now and domestically. This case presents a 51 year-old male who had nasal stuffiness for 2 months. A mass was noticed in his right nasal cavity, and histopathologic findings revealed the mass as a teratocarcinosarcoma. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging showed that the mass originated from right nasal septum and did not invade the sinuses and that it was touching the inferior turbinate. No cervical lymph node metastasis was observed (T2N0M0, Stage II). Wide excision of the mass was performed, and no invasion in the resection margin was confirmed. Radiotherapy was performed postoperatively. Currently, the patient has been followed up on a regular basis for 28 months. Thus, the authors present a report of very rare sinonasal teratocarcinosarcoma.
