    Journal: Optom Vis Sci; 2015 Apr; 92(4 Suppl 1):S33-5. PubMed ID: 25730333.
    Abstract:
    PURPOSE: To report a rare case of nasal chondroma presenting as hypertelorism. CASE REPORT: We report a case of a 16-year-old boy with a large calcified mass arising from the posterior nasal cavity presenting as hypertelorism. Surgical excision was done, and the histopathological examination revealed a chondroma. The hypertelorism resolved postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS: Nasal chondroma may also present innocuously as hypertelorism as in this case.
