Article Synopsis
- Mucosal melanomas are rare, aggressive tumors from melanocytes in mucosal tissues, making up less than 1% of sinonasal cancers; their diagnosis is often delayed due to vague symptoms.
- A case study of a 75-year-old woman highlights the challenges of diagnosing amelanotic sinonasal melanoma, complicated by significant bleeding during biopsy, but ultimately resolved through a detailed clinical approach.
- The successful treatment involved surgical removal despite bleeding, followed by chemotherapy and radiotherapy, emphasizing the need for a coordinated, personalized strategy for managing such rare cancers based on their specific characteristics.

Article Synopsis
- Angiectatic nasal polyps (ANP) are unusual growths in the nose that can be hard to identify and are not real tumors.
- They can look a lot like another type of nose growth called juvenile nasal angiofibroma, which makes it tricky to tell them apart just using imaging tests.
- In a case report, a young adult had nasal blockage and bleeding, and after surgery and testing the tissue, doctors confirmed it was an ANP.
