Fibrolipoma presenting as a posterior nasal septum mass: a report of a unique case and review of the literature

Unilateral sinonasal mass presenting as nasal block is a common presentation but poses a diagnostic challenge. The differential diagnosis includes inflammatory polyps, benign and malignant sinonasal neoplasm. Fibrolipoma presenting in the sinonasal area is an uncommon pathology. As it is uncommon, there is potential for a misdiagnosis, unnecessary investigation and delay in the definitive treatment. We report a patient with a fibrolipoma originating from the posterior nasal septum. The diagnostic and surgical features of this unique case are discussed.
