A ten years old male patient,the main symptom was prsented as the left nasal obstruction, repeated hemorrhage with hyposmia. Large translucent neoplasm can be seen in the left side of the nasal cavity. CT and MRI of the nasal sinus showed that the soft tissue density shadow in the left side of the ethmoid sinus and the surrounding bone with no damage. He was treated with nasal endoscopic surgery. Postoperative pathology showed schwannoma. The tumor recurred three years later, and the patient underwent nasal endoscopic surgery again. In the literature we reviewed the case to analyze the reasons of recurrence.

D009442 Neurilemmoma A neoplasm that arises from SCHWANN CELLS of the cranial, peripheral, and autonomic nerves. Clinically, these tumors may present as a cranial neuropathy, abdominal or soft tissue mass, intracranial lesion, or with spinal cord compression. Histologically, these tumors are encapsulated, highly vascular, and composed of a homogenous pattern of biphasic fusiform-shaped cells that may have a palisaded appearance.
