Sinonasal involvement is extremely rare, with nasal congestion and obstruction being the leading symptoms. We present a rare case of large chondrosarcoma of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses, primarily presenting with ocular symptoms.Chondrosarcomas of the paranasal sinuses are rare and pose diagnostic and treatment challenge. Rarely will they initially present with ocular symptoms. A comprehensive range of medical investigation enables timely recognition and treatment.
