    Abstract

    Clinical and pathological aspects of an unusual case of bilateral, multiple glandular cysts of the nasal mucosa, originating from both inferior turbinates, are herewith described, as an occasional finding in rhinoplasty. Although cystic structures are common in the upper respiratory tract, the development of a mucous cyst in the nasal cavity is a very rare occurrence. The differential diagnosis of nasal glandular cysts from other cystic conditions appearing in the nasal cavity is discussed.
