“…Nasal dermoid sinus cysts appear sporadically in the general population with a male predominance in most of the series, 3,6,7 as in our study. We did not observe any familial cases, which have rarely been documented in the literature 3,8,9 …”

Thirty-six children with nasal dermoid sinus cysts were treated in the Department Pediatric Otolaryngology, Armand Trousseau's Children's Hospital (Paris, France) between 1974 and 1994. Ten of the patients presented with a midline cyst only, eight had nasal pits only, and 18 had combined cases. In six of the 36 patients, presurgical imagery indicated signs of intracranial extension of the tract, reaching the foramen caecum without intracranial mass. Three surgical techniques were used: an external rhinoplasty approach with medial crura section in 23 cases, a direct median approach in seven cases, and a paracanthal approach in six cases. Only two cases had meningeal adherences. Two superficial recurrences occurred within the 7-year follow-up period. Widening of the scar occurred in four children after verticomedian approach or nasal pit excision. The external rhinoplasty procedure with medial crura section results in a wide surgical approach, low recurrence rate, and good aesthetic results.

“…These results suggest that the increase in expression ratios of BATF2 may be a novel marker of metastasis. The reason for the increase in the expres-sion of BATF2 in invasive MM is elusive; however, one possible explanation is that BATF2 is highly induced by Toll-like receptor ligands, such as damage-associated molecular patterns, 2,4 which are released from damaged tumor cells in advanced MM. 5 In conclusion, we demonstrate that an increase in the expression ratio of BATF2 in primary lesions of MM may be a novel marker of the invasion and metastasis of MM.…”
