A case report: Primary melanoma of the nasal cavity

Abstract

We report a rare case of sinonasal mucosal malignant melanoma in the nasal cavity. The patient had respiratory difficulty, continuous epistaxis and nasal pain. We identified a malignant tumour which is a rare pathology with detailed physical examination, anterior rhinoscopy, computed tomography (CT) scan, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and histopathologic examination. The patient did not accept surgical procedures and was referred for chemotherapy or immunotherapy. Continued follow-up of this is necessary.
