“…As a conclusion, transnasal endoscopic marsupialization was stated to be an advantageous and effective method in the treatment of NAC. Özer et al reported a nasoalveolar cyst case that was treated by transnasal endoscopic approach and complete cyst excision was performed [9]. In our case, we aimed to remove the entire cyst wall instead of marsupialization and did excision by sublabial approach because of the localization, size, and infection history of the cysts.…”

Nasoalveolar cysts, which originate from epithelial remnants of nasolacrimal duct, are nonodontogenic soft tissue lesions of the upper jaw. These cysts are thought to be developmental and are presented with fullness in the upper lip and nose, swelling on the palate, and sometimes nasal obstruction. Because of cosmetic problems, they are often diagnosed at an early stage. These lesions are mostly revealed unilaterally but also can be seen on both sides. In this case report, a patient who complained of nasal obstruction and then diagnosed with bilateral nasoalveolar cysts and treated by sublabial excision is presented and clinical features and treatment approaches are discussed with the review of literature.

“…Management options for nasolabial cysts include needle aspiration, injection of sclerosing agents, cauterization, and incision followed by drainage or surgical excision by sublabial or transnasal approach. 9 The results following sublabial approach are generally good, with a wider surgical field and better assurance of complete excision; yet, risk of general anaesthesia, hematoma, soft tissue swelling, wound infection and oronasal fistula remains maybe concerning. 17 In the patients operated by the sublabial approach, a study reports the wounds healed within 2 to 3 weeks and postoperative sequelae included toothache, numbness of the perinasal area and swelling of the upper lip.…”

Introduction: A nasoalveolar cyst is a benign nonodontogenic mass situated in the anterior region of the maxilla. They are often located submucosally in the anterior nasal floor giving rise to swelling in the nasolabial area at the base of nasal alae. Traditionally, the approach of choice was intraoral sublabial marsupialization, however the trend is shifting to lesser invasive and scarless transnasal endoscopic marsupialization. Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective observational study comprising of 16 patients who underwent microdebrider assisted endoscopic transnasal marsupialization of nasoalveolar cyst. Results: 16 patients underwent endoscopic transnasal marsupialization under general anaesthesia. They were followed up for 6-16 months (mean 9.43) and none of them had any recurrence. Conclusion: The traditional treatment for the same has been by external approach. However, a scar in this area of face is not acceptable for many. Also, it is not easy to excise the whole cyst in toto. In our experience, microdebrider assisted endoscopic transnasal marsupialisation is an easier, faster, safer, and equally efficacious technique to treat nasolabial cyst without any recurrence. Key words: nasoalveolar cyst; nasolabial cyst; endoscopic marsupialization

“…According to Nixdorf et al [13], patients only seek therapy when there is deformity, nasal obstruction, or an infection caused by the lesion [5, 9, 15]. However, this patient sought treatment because he thought the injury was of dental origin, as there was a communication of the nasolabial cyst with the root tips of teeth 14 and 15.…”

“…It presents as a slow and asymptomatic growth except when associated with an infection [9]. A nasolabial cyst typically forms between the first and seventh decades of life and is more common in adults aged 40–50 years, females (3 : 1) [1], and dark-skinned people [10].…”

Nasolabial Cyst Associated with Odontogenic Infection

The nasolabial cyst or Klestadt cyst is a relatively uncommon nonodontogenic cyst that develops in the nasal alar region; it has uncertain pathogenesis. This lesion has slow growth and variable dimensions and is characterized clinically by a floating tumefaction in the nasolabial fold area around the bridge of the nose, causing an elevation of the upper lip and relative facial asymmetry. Diagnosis is primarily made clinically; if necessary, this is complemented by imaging. This paper reports the case of a 39-year-old male patient who complained of pain in the right upper premolar region and poor aesthetics due to a firm tumor in the right wing of the nose. Initially, this was thought to be due to an odontogenic abscess; however, the differential diagnosis was that a nasolabial cyst was communicating with the apex of teeth 14 and 15. Surgical treatment was carried out, followed by histopathological examination and concomitant endodontic treatment of the teeth involved.
