Management of a Rare Case of Central Nasal Dermoid Cyst Deformity in an Adult Patient.

Congenital nasal dermoid and sinus cysts (NDSCs) are rare congenital deformities with a prevalence rate of 0.005% to 0.0025%. Early diagnosis is usually made during the first three years of life, but in some cases, the diagnosis may be delayed. The present case study elaborates the treatment course of a 22-year-old adult with a rare congenital nasal midline dermoid cyst. The patient had no family history of the deformity, and intracranial extensions were also ruled out before surgery. Open rhinoplasty technique was used along with osteotomies during the surgical process. The cyst was removed in entirety. The total operating time was six hours, and no complications were observed during the intra-operative or post-operative period. In conclusion, the case presentation focuses on various techniques and methods that can be used during surgery that have not been practiced before to correct the deformity while achieving a good aesthetic result as well.
