Abstract

A 12-year-old girl presented with complaints of nasal obstruction and a right infraorbital swelling. A biopsy obtained from the right nasal passage revealed olfactory neuroblastoma. The tumor was completely excised via subfrontal craniofacial and midfacial degloving approaches. No recurrence was observed during a three-year follow-up.
