  • Title: MRI of intranasal pleomorphic adenoma.
    Author: Fushiki H, Morijiri M, Maruyama M, Motoshima H, Watanabe Y.
    Journal: Acta Otolaryngol; 2006 Aug; 126(8):889-91. PubMed ID: 16846937.
    Abstract:
    A pleomorphic adenoma in the nasal cavity constitutes a rarity. A 48-year-old woman presented with intranasal pleomorphic adenoma revealed by unilateral continuous obstruction and occasional epistaxis. Nasal endoscopy showed a mucosa-covered and opalescent polypoidal mass arising from the left nasal septum. Unlike cases affecting the major salivary gland, magnetic resonance image (MRI) revealed that the mass showed a low signal intensity on T1-weighted image and a heterogeneous, intermediate signal intensity on T2-weighted image. MRI findings can aid in diagnosis and help exclude the possibility of other neoplasms that occur at this site.
