Abstract
MR, 30 years, M/M had huge nasal mass for 25 years and nasal obstruction for 15 years. On examination, a huge mass involving right side of face, nose, cheek, orbit and palate of 10″ × 8″ size was noticed. The right eye was proptosed eccentrically and was completely blind. Histopathological examination diagnosed the case to be fibrous dysplasia.
