Multifocal Sinonasal Inverted Papilloma with Middle Ear Involvement

Abstract

Inverted papilloma of the nasal cavity is a benign neoplasm, although it can be locally invasive and has the potential for malignant degeneration. Inverted papilloma of the temporal bone is extremely rare. We describe a case of a 44-year-old woman who was treated for nasal inverted papilloma and was later found to have inverted papilloma of her temporal bone. The patient required several procedures to remove the inverted papilloma from the nasal cavity and temporal bone, and she is currently free of recurrence.
