Abstract

Three cases of intestinal type adenocarcinomas of the nose and sinuses are described. In two of them the tumors were associated with an extended exposure to wood dust, while no association with any known exposure factor was detected in the third. Clinical history, pathology, treatment and follow-up of each case are reviewed.
