Abstract
Epidermoid cysts; in the midline of the body is composed of internal keratin filled cysts. They occur when the branch arches are not fully closed. They usually have limited involvement. They occur mostly in the genital area and rarely hold the head and neck region. Nasal dorsum involvement is very rare. In this case report, we present a case of epidermal cyst that disintegrates the nasal bone at the age of 33 and forms an open roof deformity.
