Proboscis lateralis: a case report.
Proboscis lateralis is a rare facial anomaly resulting in incomplete formation of one side of the nose. We report a left-sided proboscis lateralis case of a 9 months old male with left-sided heminasal aplasia, microphthalmi, coloboma iris and retina and an arachnoid cyst in the temporal fossa of the brain. We present the clinical, radiological features of this unusual case.
