NASAL AND PARANASAL TUMORS CANCER

The nasal passage separates the nose from the mouth and allows air to pass so that one can breathe and smell. The paranasal sinuses are the small hollow spaces around the nose, giving the upper face its shape and resonance to our voice.

Growth of abnormal cells in tissues of the nasal and paranasal areas leads to the development of noncancerous (benign) and cancerous (malignant) tumors. Because these are air-filled spaces, one may not have symptoms until the tumors have grown large enough to alter your ability to breathe through the nose or affect sense of smell or vision. But common symptoms can be persistent blockage of nose, loosening of teeth, lump in the upper gums, numbness around the nose, bleeding during sneezing or clearing of nose.
