While it is believed to be benign, its clinical presentation, radiological characteristics, and microscopic features may closely mimic more aggressive tumors of the upper respiratory tract, potentially leading to needless life-altering treatment. Prior to now, there had been no reported cases of this lesion in West Africa. We present a 35-year-old male with persistent bilateral nasal obstruction, difficulty with swallowing, and bilateral reduction in hearing, whose CT findings were highly suggestive of a nasopharyngeal tumor, but upon biopsy and histology showed features most consistent with REAH. Surgery completely alleviated his symptoms with no clinical evidence of recurrence after a 1-year follow-up period.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2023\/9942293","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,30]],"date-time":"2023-11-30T17:35:07Z","timestamp":1701365707000},"page":"1-3","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Respiratory Epithelial Adenomatoid Hamartoma: An Uncommon Differential of Nasopharyngeal Tumor"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2023","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5931-3018","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Taiwo Olufemi","family":"Solaja","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anatomic Pathology, Ben Carson College of Health and Medical Sciences, Babcock University, Ilishan-Remo, Ogun State, Nigeria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1868-1898","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Kenechukwu Chinemelum","family":"Uche-Okonkwo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Otorhinolaryngology Unit, Department of Surgery, Ben Carson College of Health and Medical Sciences, Babcock University, Ilishan-Remo, Ogun State, Nigeria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9349-0330","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Moses Ayodele","family":"Akinola","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Otorhinolaryngology Unit, Department of Surgery, Ben Carson College of Health and Medical Sciences, Babcock University, Ilishan-Remo, Ogun State, Nigeria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4232-2094","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"John Ifeanyi","family":"Nwadiokwu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anatomic Pathology, Ben Carson College of Health and Medical Sciences, Babcock University, Ilishan-Remo, Ogun State, Nigeria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","reference":[{"issue":"1","key":"1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"48","DOI":"10.1053\/j.semdp.2018.12.001","article-title":"Hamartomas of skin and soft tissue","volume":"36","author":"B.
