Abstract: Myofibromas are rare mesenchymal neoplasms that primarily affect infants and young children, most commonly arising in the skin, subcutaneous tissue, muscle, or bone. These tumors present with a broad clinical spectrum, ranging from self-limiting lesions to disseminated and fatal cases. In adults, the solitary form is encountered more frequently than the multicentric type. Although myofibromas may occur in the oral region of the head and neck, isolated cases involving the nasal septum are exceedingly rare. Here, we describe a case of solitary adult-onset myofibroma of the nasal septum that was successfully excised through transnasal endoscopic surgery.
