Neoplasms of the nasal cavity, in particular the inferior turbinate, are extremely rare pathologies. They are mainly detected when performing anterior rhinoscopy, endoscopic examination of the nasal cavity. The result of histological examination is compact osteoma. The gigantic size of the inferior turbinate osteoma in our case is probably due to the patient's failure to consult a specialist (otorhinolaryngologist) for a long time. Surgical treatment of this pathology should consist in an endoscopic endonasal approach: this approach allows the most complete and minimally traumatic removal of the tumor.
