Nasal Bone Osteoma Approach

Maria Cecília Closs Ono et al. J Craniofac Surg. 2020 Jan/Feb.

Abstract

Osteoma is a benign osteogenic lesion that arises most frequently in the craniomaxillofacial region. Rarely, it can appear on the outer side of nasal bone and cause aesthetic problems. The authors present an unusual case of outer side nasal bone osteoma with a brief review of its main clinical presentations, diagnostic studies, and treatment options.
