Abstract
Sinonasal oncocytic papillomasare uncommon benign neoplasms that arise from the sinonasal schneiderian epithelium. Malignancies arising in oncocytic schneiderian papilloma (OSPs) are rare. We reported a case of a 92-year old woman who was suffering from right nasal block for few years. Later he presented with worsening of the symptom, causing snoring and difficulty in breathing. The intraoperative biopsy taken from the lesion turned out to be squamous cell carcinoma.
Keywords: Sinonasal, papilloma, malignancy, snoring.
