“…In the present case, the middle nostril was a blind-ended structure. Openings into the nasal cavity are frequently found within abnormal nostrils in human cases of supernumerary nostrils, and a minority of the cases exhibit blind-ended structures [ 9 ]. Blind-ended lesions are less likely to result in respiratory symptoms but may become subject to infection, because the muzzle is widely exposed to a range of microorganisms in the environment.…”

Background: Nasal abnormalities are rare in bovines. In humans, nasal deformities are mainly classified as proboscis lateralis or supernumerary nostrils. This report discusses the etiology of triple nostrils in a calf, based on computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and endoscopy. Case presentation: A female Holstein calf presented with triple nostrils. The following abnormalities were observed: (1) formation of a small and flat blind-ended middle nostril between the right and left nostrils; (2) presence of a hair-bearing surface on the muzzle; (3) abnormal curvature of the nasal septum, resulting in a narrower right nasal cavity due to transformation of the nasal bones; and (4) formation of a bone-like structure within the nasal septum. These findings were similar to those of supernumerary nostrils in humans. Conclusions: To the best of our knowledge, this represents the first description of a calf with triple nostrils. The use of imaging modalities is necessary for investigating the etiology of triple nostrils.

“…The differential diagnoses of supernumerary nostril are proboscis lateralis, basal encephalocele, meningocele, nasal dermoid, nasal glioma, and nasolacrimal duct duplication. [ 2 3 7 8 9 10 11 12 ] Among all the differential diagnoses, proboscis lateralis closely resembles the supernumerary nostril. Furthermore, associated brain and cranial vault anomalies are seen in 19% of the patients with proboscis lateralis.…”

Congenital hydrocephalus, corpus callosum agenesis, and prosencephalic cyst with supernumerary nostril: A neurocristopathy

2018

A 3-month-old-male infant presented with enlargement of head since birth. Clinical and radiological evaluation revealed congenital hydrocephalus, corpus callosum agenesis, prosencephalic cyst, and cranial vault deficiency with supernumerary nostril on the left side. Right ventriculoperitoneal shunt (Chhabra shunt) surgery was performed. The patient did well postoperatively. Parents of the patient have been counseled for repair of supernumerary nostril. Congenital hydrocephalus with corpus callosum agenesis is rare. Furthermore, supernumerary nostril is a very rare anomaly with <40 cases reported in the literature till date. To the best of our knowledge, congenital hydrocephalus, corpus callosum agenesis, prosencephalic cyst, and cranial vault deficiency associated with supernumerary nostril have not been reported till date. We herein briefly review the pertinent literature and describe the embryopathogenesis of this rare association. We propose that this association is a neurocristopathy.

“…Two main types of congenital nasal malformations have been reported in humans: proboscis lateralis (a rare acquired facial abnormality with a trunk-like projection near the nose), and supernumerary nostrils (additional nostril with or without accessory cartilage). [1][2][3] The incidence of these growths is estimated to between 1:1,000,000 and 1:100,000 live births. 1 There is a slight male predilection.…”

A female Holstein calf was presented with quadruple nostrils. In the normal nose, one of the nostrils was normal and another had an abnormal flexible structure in the upper region of the nose. The extra nose included one tube‐like structure, two accessory nostrils and narrow vestibules. Complete surgical removal was selected. Histopathologically, a normal cutaneous region of nostril structure and a small region of immature respiratory tissue were observed. The cutaneous region of the rostral portion was lined by a thick keratinised stratified squamous epithelium. At the caudal cutaneous region, the epithelium was thinner. Collagen fibres, vessels, serous glands, muscle and cartilage were seen in the submucosa. The epithelium lining the immature respiratory region was pseudostratified columnar. No recurrence or wound healing complication was observed 5 months following the surgical procedures.
