Аннотация
INTRODUCTION: Malignant melanoma of the nasal cavity is a rare tumor usually causing unilateral nasal obstruction and nasal bleeding. Diagnosis is achieved with immunohistochemistry analysis. Surgery is proposed for curative treatment.
CASE REPORT: We report the case of a 60-year-old man with a malignant melanoma of the nasal cavity revealed by an important tumor of the cheek. Epistaxis and nasal obstructive syndrome occurred later. Because of the tumor stage, palliative chemotherapy was performed but the patient died 4 months after the diagnosis.
DISCUSSION: This clinical presentation of malignant melanoma of the nasal cavity, related to local spreading, is exceptional. CT scan and MRI are essential for tumor staging and therapeutic decision-making. Prognosis remains poor.
