Nasolabial Cysts: Case Series

Nasolabial cyst is a rare, benign soft tissue mass located in the nasolabial fold. It is submucosal and extra osseous. It affects more commonly middle aged women with coloured skin. They can be regularly infected or cause nasal obstruction and alar deformity. Clinical examination, nasal endoscopy and imaging are necessary to make the diagnosis. When symptomatic surgery is the treatment. It may consist of a complete excision via a transoral sublabial incision or a endonasal marsupialization. Both techniques have the same efficacy. We report herein a series of 6 patients treated successfully in the ENT department of the CHU UCL Namur from Belgium.
