A Rare Nasolabial Cyst

Abstract

  Nasolabial cysts are one of the rare non-odonthogenic cysts of the maxillofacial region cysts. Nasolabial cysts are soft tissue lesions arising from epithelial remnants of the nasolacrimal duct. They are rare benign non-odontogenic lesions of nasolabial region. Because of their frequent expansion, they cause aesthetic problems. Therefore, they present symptomatic findings in the early period. Nasolabial cysts are usually unilateral and they are more common seem in women. These lesions may be asymptomatic or they may cause nasal obstruction, pain and facial asymmetry. The aim of this case report is to discuss clinical presentation, diagnosis, radiographic appearance and the more suitable surgical techniques to treat this disorder.

Nadir Görülen Nazolabial Kist

Abstract

Nazolabial kist, çene yüz bölgesinin nadir görülen non-odontojenik kistlerinden birisidir. Bu kistler nazolakrimal duktusun epitelyal kalıntısından ortaya çıkan, nazolabial bölgenin nadir görülen, diş kaynaklı olmayan iyi huylu patolojileridir. Sıklıkla ekspansiyon gösterdiklerinden estetik sorunlara neden olurlar. Bundan dolayı erken dönemde semptomatik bulgular verebilirler. Nazolabial kistler sıklıkla tek taraflı olup, kadınlarda daha sık görülmektedir. Bu kitleler asemptomatik olabilecekleri gibi nasal obstrüksiyon, ağrı ya da yüzde asimetriye yol açabilirler. Bu olgu sunumunda nazolabial sulkus bölgesinde tutulum gösteren, nazolabial kist teşhisi konulan olgunun kliniği, diagnozu, radyolojik bulguları ve en uygun cerrahi tedavi yöntemlerinin tartışılması amaçlanmıştır.
