Malignant tumours of the nasal cavity are rare. Olfactory neuroblastomas (esthesioneuroblastomas) account for only 6% of these neoplasms. Fewer than 1,000 cases have been reported in the literature since this tumour was first described more than 75 years ago. A 13 year old girl presented with bleeding nasal polyp to ENT Department. She was operated as there were no signs of tumour the histopathology report revealed it to be olfactory neuroblastoma.
