Abstract :
Nasolabial cysts are uncommon nonodontogenic lesions that occur in the nasal alar region. These lesions usually present with
asymptomatic swelling but can cause pain if infected. In this case report, we describe the inadequacy of conventional radiography
in a nasolabial cyst case, as well as the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasonography (US) findings in a 54-year-old
female patient.
