Actinomycosis is common in the head and neck region but rarely occurs in the nasal septum. A 75-year-old male patient with an edentulous maxilla, hypertension, and diabetes developed actinomycosis confined to the nasal septum and showed mucosal necrosis and septal bony sequestration. The patient underwent surgery and medication therapy; this case was reported using endoscopic photographs and radiographs and a literature review was conducted to provide further context and understanding of the condition of the patient.
