  • Title: [A rare cause of facial asymmetry: nasoalveolar cyst: a clinical report].
    Author: Brocks C, Graefe H, Bos I, Wollenberg B, Meyer JE.
    Journal: HNO; 2008 Sep; 56(9):971-4. PubMed ID: 18712327.
    Abstract:
    UNLABELLED: Nasoalveolar cysts are rare nonodontogenic cysts that develop from the soft tissue in the mucobuccal area of the nasal ala. Their origin is a residuum of the nasolacrimal canal. CLINICAL CASE: A 45-year-old woman had been aware of a painless tumor at the base of the nose and in the region of the left nasal ala for several months. We diagnosed a nasolabial cyst, which was extirpated in toto through a combined transvestibular-transnasal approach.
