Abstract
A case of bilateral nasolabial cysts in a 44-year-old female patient is reported. The patient was referred to our hospital with a chief complaint of swelling in the right alar base. Physical examination showed swelling with fluctuation in the oral vestibule of the bilateral maxillary canine areas. Yellow-colored fluid was aspired by fine needle aspiration cytology. CT scan showed two cystic lesions separately existing in the alar bases of the both sides. Under a clinical diagnosis of bilateral nasolabial cysts, the lesions were enucleated under general anesthesia. Histopathologically, the cystic cavities were lined by pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium with goblet cells.
