title: Unusually large nasopalatine cyst: CT findings.
abstract: In a patient presenting with nasal obstruction the clinical suspicion of a nasal mass led to computed tomography that demonstrated findings thought to be characteristic of an unusually large nasopalatine cyst. The definitive diagnosis of nasopalatine cyst is more easily made on plain films. The entity is described, emphasizing once again the necessity of including dental and facial abnormalities in the differential diagnosis of lesions of the sinuses and nose.
