Sarcomata appear either as primary or secondary consist of round or spindle cells, either small or large, andare quite soft and exceedingly vascular. In some instancesthey extend from surrounding tissues and involve the nose bycontinuity. They are malignant in nature, and usually re-formrapidly after removal. While there is generally the underlyingcancerous cachexia, these tumors sometimes result from thedegeneration of benign growths. Symptoms.—In the early stages nasal obstruction and painare the chief symptoms, but soon superficial ulceration, offensive,ichorous discharge, and headache are noted; the accessorycavities often being early invaded. Later, deep ulcerationsoccur and involve the surrounding parts by extension; thefeatures may be distorted, or the growth extend to the brainand speedily terminate life. Diagnosis.
