Schwannomas are benign peripheral nerve sheath tumours that arise from the Schwann cells of the myelinated nerve and may occur throughout the body. Paranasal schwannomas are uncommon lesions, representing less than 4% of all head and neck schwannomas and nasal septal schwannomas are very rare. Here we report a rare case of sinonasal schwannoma in a 46-year-old male who presented with a history of progressive nasal blockage of 3 years duration. The mass was removed by endoscopic approach without any postoperative complication. The rarity of diagnosis was aided by immune histopathology (IHC) of the tissue to confirm the disease.
