RESUMEN
Pleomorphic adenoma of soft palate is extremely rare. A large tumour in soft palate is reported with sleep apnea syndrome. Diagnosis was made by fine needle aspiration cytology and intraoperative consultation by imprint smears, which were confirmed by histopathological and immunohistochemical studies.

Non Hodgkin's Lymphomas of the sinonasal tract are uncommon neoplasms that can be morphologically difficult to distinguish from destructive non-neoplastic process or other malignant neoplasm in this site. Non-Hodgkin's Lymphomas of the sinonasal tract are heterogeneous diseases that can be clinically aggressive. Immunophenotypic pattern of Non-Hodgkin's Lymphomas shows marked variations. We are reporting a case of B-Cell type of Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinus with complete clinicopathological and immunohistochemical study as it is rare in Indian literature and review of the literature is done.

Nasal obstruction due to deviated nasal septum is a common problem encountered by otolaryngologists. A variety of surgical procedures have been tried in the treatment of the same. This study was conducted to evaluate the outcomes and complications of endoscopic and conventional septoplasty. This is a prospective, randomized study. Fifty patients with symptomatic deviated nasal septum were included in the study, 25 of them underwent conventional septoplasty and the rest underwent endoscopic septoplasty. The difference in the functional outcome of both the surgeries was insignificant. There was a significant difference with respect to complications. Endoscopic septoplasty had better outcome with respect to complications. It is easier to correct posterior deviations and isolated spurs with endoscopic septoplasty. Complications are lesser with endoscopic septoplasty.
