Abstract
We describe a 21 year old man who was found to have an opening on his external nose since birth. No other clinical and radiological abnormalities were demonstrable elsewhere in his body. The opening is on the lower part of the nose one cm. away from the midline on right side, clinically looking like a sinus. Histological examination of the excised tract showed an organoid structure that was consistent with an"Accessory nose."Entities:
