Gustavo Corrêa de Carvalho, Bruna Voss, Rauf Antonio Dalla Santa, Stefani Bordin, Taíse de Freitas Marcelino, Carlos Eduardo Monteiro Zappelini3* 1Academics of the Medical Course of the University of Southern Santa Catarina at UNISUL, Brazil 2Otorhinolaryngologist, professor of the Medicine Course at UNISUL, Brazil 3Otorhinolaryngologist, Doctorate in Otorhinolaryngology, Professor of the Medicine Course at UNISUL, Brazil. A 35-year-old female patient complained of chronic nasal obstruction on the right. Examination of anterior rhinoscopy and video flexible nasofibroscopy showed only bulging of the nasal floor on the right. Computed tomography was requested, which evidenced the presence of a lesion with attenuation of soft parts, with regular contours and defined limits, with slight enhancement to the intravenous contrast medium, located in the right nasolabial recess, associated with discrete bone erosion extending to the corresponding nasal cavity, measuring 1.7 x 1.0 x 1.6 cm.
