ABSTRACT
Inflammatory pseudotumors, which clinically mimic neoplasms, are space-occupying collections of inflammatory cells, histiocytes, and fibroblasts. They are most often found in the orbits and lungs, but rarely in the head and neck region, and hardly ever in the nasal septum. Here we report on a 71-year-old woman with pseudotumor cerebri and an inflammatory pseudotumor of the nasal septum. This case demonstrates that inflammatory pseudotumor can cooccur in the brain and nasal septum.
