“…However, the epithelial remnants which were persisted may later become the source of epithelia from which NPDC can arise. The proliferation can occur either from spontaneous proliferation or proliferation following trauma (example-removable dentures), bacterial infection or mucous retention [6,7]. Genetic and racial factors have also been suggested [1,10].…”

Nasopalatine duct cyst is the most common developmental non-odontogenic cysts seen in the midline region of anterior maxilla. An epithelial remnant of the nasopalatine ducts remain in the incisive canal is the most common etiology. Nasopalatine duct cysts are generally asymptomatic and infrequently produce a swelling and associated pain in the anterior palate if secondarily infected. On radiograph it presents with a welldefined round, oval or heart shaped radiolucency. Histopathologically it shows non-keratinized epithelium typically with neurovascular bundles in the connective tissue capsule. Surgical enucleation is the treatment of choice. In the present case report clinical features, diagnosis and management of nasopalatine duct cyst in a 23-year-old male in the anterior maxillary palatal region is discussed.

Case report: Unilateral transnasal endoscopic marsupialization of nasopalatine duct cyst

et al. 2022

Nasopalatine duct cyst (NPDC) is the most common type of non-odontogenic cysts of the jaw. It has been treated with complete surgical resection using a sublabial or palatine approach. However, complete removal of the cyst can be accompanied by postoperative complications including oronasal fistula. Recently, endoscopic marsupialization for the disease has been advocated, but there are still few reports regarding the surgery. Herein, we report a case of NPDC that was treated with unilateral transnasal endoscopic marsupialization. A 43-year-old man with no relevant previous medical history was referred to our hospital for the treatment of lesion occupying the right nasal cavity. A computerized tomography scan of the sinus revealed an egg-shaped lesion with a well-defined border centered on the lower half of the nasal cavity and hard palate. Based on the site of the lesion, it was considered to be NPDC. Transnasal endoscopic marsupialization was performed to diagnose and improve nasal obstruction. Histopathological examination revealed stratified squamous epithelium without atypia, which was consistent with NPDC. Although the patient noticed paresthesia of the right upper incisor area, symptoms improved 3 months after surgery. Written informed consent was obtained from the patient for the publication of any potentially identifiable images or data included in this article. Transnasal endoscopic marsupialization for NPDC is minimally invasive and useful; however, it is necessary to build evidence for an appropriate excision range based on the position and size of the lesion.

“… 1 , 2 The standard treatment for NDC is complete removal through a sublabial or palatine approach. 1 , 3 , 4 Since NDC is not a tumor, simple marsupialization to the nasal cavity is another treatment option. We treated a 29-year-old male with NDC by endoscopic endonasal marsupialization from the bilateral nasal cavities.…”

Nasopalatine duct cysts are the most common non-odontogenic cysts in the maxilla, and are conventionally treated through a sublabial or palatine approach. Recently, the endoscopic approach has been used, but experience is extremely limited. We treated a 29-year-old male with nasopalatine duct cyst by endoscopic marsupialization, but paresthesia of the incisor region occurred after surgery. This paresthesia gradually remitted within 6 months. The nasopalatine nerve, which innervates the upper incisor region, enters two lateral canals separately at the nasal floor and exits the central main canal at the palate. Damage to the bilateral nasopalatine nerves might lead to paresthesia, so we recommend careful examination for nerve fibers during endoscopic surgery, especially if fenestration is performed on both sides.
