Nasolabial cyst: report of case.
A case of a nasolabial cyst in a woman has been presented; this case adds to the findings that the majority of these lesions are seen in women. The diagnosis of the lesion was complicated by the presence of a radiolucent lesion, and this required the inclusion of other lesions in the differential diagnosis. The presence of S aureus, considered as normal nasal flora, precluded the use of a radiopaque contrast medium to delineate the presence of a nasolabial cyst. Surgical removal of the cyst has achieved a satisfactory result.
