Abstract
Phosphaturic mesenchymal tumours are rare benign tumours most commonly seen in extremities. Phosphaturic mesenchymal tumour of the sinonasal area is extremely rare. These tumors secrete a peptide-like hormone, fibroblast growth factor, resulting in urinary loss of phosphates and thus presents with oncogenic osteomalacia. Here we present a case of a 59 year old lady with sinonasal phosphaturic mesenchymal tumour and tumour induced osteomalacia.
