Abstract
Sinonasal inverted papilloma (SNIP) is one of the most common benign epithelial tumors but rarely occurs in children. The case of a 9-year-old Chinese boy, who presented with a left maxillofacial hump, nasal obstruction, and left nasal cavity and maxillary sinus masses under nasal endoscopy, is reported. The lesion was first diagnosed as a sinonasal tumor. However, to our surprise, the mass was determined to be an inverted papilloma after a detailed histological examination. We retrospectively reported the clinical data of this case and reviewed the relevant literatures on SNIP. This report aims to provide new insights into the clinical characteristics in children with SNIP and improve the understanding of this disease.
