A full-term male neonate presented with a left sided cervical lump at the level of the thyroid gland. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a benign heterogeneous solid mass with lobulated margins. The tumor underwent complete excision. Histology revealed the diagnosis of chondromesenchymal hamartoma in ectopic thyroid tissue.

Nasal and paranasal sinus masses can arise from a wide range of conditions, both benign and malignant, as well as congenital or acquired. Diagnosing these masses is often challenging, requiring a combination of nasal endoscopy, imaging studies, and histopathological analysis. Initial imaging frequently involves computed tomography or cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) to evaluate the bony anatomy of the nasal cavity and surrounding sinuses, while magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is typically used for detailed assessment of soft tissues and to aid in differential diagnosis when the findings are inconclusive.

Article Synopsis
- - A range of hamartomatous lesions in the sinonasal tract includes REAH, SH, and NCMH, which have distinct characteristics.
- - REAH and SH show similarities in their appearance and can occur alongside other tumors, leading to ongoing discussions about their classification.
- - NCMH targets a specific patient group and has unique molecular factors, while new related sinonasal hamartomas are also being identified.

To explore the clinical characteristics, pathological features, and diagnosis and treatment strategies of nasal chondromesenchymal hamartoma (NCMH) in infants and young children. A retrospective analysis was conducted on seven cases of NCMH infants and young children admitted to Beijing Children's Hospital, Capital Medical University from April 2015 to January 2022. The cohort included 5 males and 2 females, aged from 6 days to 2 years and 3 months.

Cartilage mesenchyme hamartoma originates from the mesoderm and contains a blend of interstitium and cartilage, which is mostly benign tumor and is a non-neoplastic cartilage lesion with self-limiting hyperplasia. This article reports a infant with cervical chondromesenchymal hamartoma in the neck, the main clinical manifestations of which are asphyxia and acute respiratory distress, and the imaging features are often similar to those of malignant tumors.Radical resection operation under general anesthesia is the main treatment method, and the postoperative pathological diagnosis was cartilage mesenchyme, and immunohistochemistry showed Catenin（-）,MDM2（+）,CDK4（-）,H3K36M（+）,Myogenin （-）,SMA （-）.

Article Synopsis
- Sinonasal hamartomas include three types: respiratory epithelial adenomatoid hamartoma, seromucinous hamartoma, and chondromesenchymal hamartoma, characterized by benign growths often presenting as sinonasal polyposis.
- A 79-year-old female presented with severe dyspnea, and imaging revealed a large polypoid mass obstructing the nasal passages, which was surgically excised.
- Histopathological analysis confirmed the mass as a seromucinous hamartoma, emphasizing the need for differentiation from other sinonasal conditions due to its rare nature and potential for malignancy.
