ABSTRACT: Inverted papillomas of nasal cavity are known to recur. They arise from the lateral wall of nose. The incidence of malignancy is around 10%. Squamous papillomas are also known as fungiform papillomas. Fungiform papillomas generally occur on the nasal septum and are unlikely to undergo malignant change. Our case was a squamous papilloma with intraorbital extension. Extension was studied on CT scan. The mass was excised completely by medial maxillectomy through lateral rhinotomy approach and endoscopic assistance.
