Abstract
Neoplasms of the ethmoid regions of the nasal cavities of rats appear, in advanced cases, as large masses exhibiting both exophytic and endophytic patterns of growth. One or both sides of the posterior nasal cavities may be completely filled by the tumor, resulting in displacement, erosion, and destruction of the septum, turbinals, and other surrounding osseous and cartilaginous structures. Extension through the cribriform plate into the olfactory lobes of the brain can frequently be visualized grossly upon longitudinal or coronal sectioning.
