BRUCE W. PETERS, DO, ROBERT C. O'REILLY, MD, THOMAS O. WILLCOX, JR, MD, VIJAY M. RAO, MD, LOUIS D. LOWRY, MD, and WILLIAM M. KEANE, MD, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania| nverted papilloma (IP) is an uncommon but welldescribed neoplasm involving the nose and paranasal sinuses. IP's pathophysiology is characterized by its capacity to be locally destructive, its tendency to recur, and its association with malignancy. Most major clinical series have localized these lesions to the lateral nasal wall, with sinus involvement occurring by direct extension. The surgical treatment of IP has evolved over the years, with a progression toward more radical en bloc tumor extirpation. However, recently, with innovations in nasal endoscopic techniques, limited lesions have successfully been resected with more conservative intranasal approaches. We present a unique case of IP confined to the sphenoid sinus in a 39-year-old white man and a review of the current literature.
