{Abstract}: Inverted Papilloma is a unique neoplasm characterized by its tendency to destroy bone, tendency to recur after incomplete removal and association with malignancy. The uncertainty of its clinical features and projected behaviour has resulted in an ill-defined approach to its management. This is a prospective study of 30 patients of Inverted Papilloma admitted at Regional Institute of Medical Sciences, Imphal between August 2001 to July 2003. In this study, meticulous attention is given to the clinical presentation and management in a series of 30 patients with inverted papilloma. A majority of patients were between 50-70 years (40%) with a mean age of 52.3 years. M: F Ratio=3.3:1. Commonest presenting symptoms were unilateral nasal obstruction (93.3%), nasal discharge (40%) and epistaxis (36.6%). 90% of the patients had signs of involvement of the nasal cavity with one or more sinuses and 46% showed bony erosion on C.T. Scan studies. Surgery was the treatment of choice in 90% of the cases.
