RESECTION OF INTRACRANIAL NASAL DERMOID SINUS CYST BY ENDOSCOPIC ASSISTED AND LARTERAL RHINOTOMY OPEN RHINOPLASTY APPROACH: A CASE REPORT
Main Article Content
Abstract
Nasal dermoid sinus cysts are uncommon lesions with an incidence of 1 in 30,000 individuals, but are the most common lesions of the midline nose, accounting for 1% to 3% of all dermoid cysts, and 4% to 12% of all dermoid cysts in the head and neck region.1,2,8 Complete resection of nasal dermoid sinus cysts is essential to prevent recurrence, nasal deformity, infection, meningitis, and intracranial abscesses.1,2,8,9 The choice of approach for complete resection of the cyst and fistula is an important issue in treatment. Here we describe the successful management of a case of dermoid fistula using a combination of open rhinoplasty, paranasal incision, and endoscopic surgery.
