Sinonasal tumors often mimick inflammatory diseases. If misdiagnosed, results are life threatening. This article comprises of study done on 5 patients who presented with nasal mass. They underwent clinical examination, diagnostic nasal endoscopy, radiology and histopathological examination (HPE). Thorough evaluation helps the surgeon diagnose rare cases thus preventing detrimental outcomes. Herein we describe our experience with rare tumors like glomangiopericytoma, embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma, small cell sinonasal carcinoma, inverted papilloma and sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma (SNUC).
