Frontal Sinus Schwannoma: Case Report and Review of Literature

چکیده
Although schwannomas are frequently found in the head and neck region, sinonasal tract involvement is extremely rare, especially those of the frontal sinus.

The histological diagnosis was consistent with a schwannoma. There has been no radiographic recurrence on 2-year follow-up.
