description Schwannoma is a slow-growing, benign tumor of the nerve sheath. It rarely presents in the nasal cavity or the paranasal sinuses. Although schwannomas in the nasal septum have been reported previously, cases of this tumor in the nasal columella are rare in the literature. Here, we report on a 67-year-old woman with a schwannoma in the nasal columella that was successfully removed using a sublabial approach, along with a review of relevant literature.
