“…Neurilemmoma is typically not malignant, but reports of transition into a malignant form after a long-term follow-up without surgical removal are available [11,12] . Therefore, surgical removal should be performed for treatment and accurate diagnosis, and a follow-up period is needed to confirm the recurrence of residual tumor in case of incomplete excision.…”

Rationale:Neurilemmoma is a benign tumor derived from the Schwann cells of the nerve sheath. The highest incidence of neurilemmoma occurs in the head and neck region; however, the nose and paranasal sinuses are rarely involved. Less than 4% of these tumors involve the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses. To date, only six cases of nasal vestibule neurilemmoma have been reported.Patient concerns:Two patients (a 32-year-old man and a 42-year-old woman) visited our clinic with complaint of a lump in the left nasal vestibule.Diagnosis:Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining confirmed a neurilemmoma.Interventions:The mass was completely removed via an intranasal approach.Outcomes and Lessons:Neurilemmoma is easy to overlook because it occurs rarely in the nasal vestibule, but neurilemmoma needs to be considered as a differential diagnosis.

Benign schwannomas of the nasal cavity are rare. When they do occur, their clinical presentation is variable, and some are fairly vascular. We report the case of a 17-year-old boy who presented with epistaxis associated with a unilateral nasal mass that extended into the nasopharynx. The tumor was removed via a transpalatal approach. In most such cases, a clinical diagnosis of angiofibroma is made. In this case, however, histopathologic examination identified the lesion as a schwannoma.
