Nasolabial cyst with radiographic contrast medium: report of two cases.
Two cases are presented of a nasolabial cyst (NC) on which a radiographic contrast medium was used in order to define the real extension of the lesion. Use of contrast is important for visualizing the definite extensions of NC primarily in cases when plain radiographs may not show any detectable changes and CT can not be used.
