Intestinal-type adenocarcinoma of the sinonasal mucosa: a rare case report

Intestinal-type adenocarcinoma is the most commonly seen adenocarcinoma of the sinonasal region following adenoid cystic carcinoma. They are aggressive tumors that are generally diagnosed in the advanced stage. Histopathological subtype is an important prognostic indicator. In this report, we have presented a case we diagnosed as intestinal-type adenocarcinoma with right nasal cavity localization.
