Abstract
A 19-year-old woman was referred for nasal breathing and aesthetic concerns regarding her nose. A computed tomography scan revealed a massive osseous shield anterior to the piriform aperture. Furthermore, there was a submucosal median alveolar cleft, and the posterior arch of C1 was missing. The magnetic resonance imaging brain scan revealed a curvilinear lipoma of corpus callosum. The ectopic nasal bone was removed by open rhinoplast,y and nasal function and aesthetics were restored. The described features defy conventional clinical diagnosis and severity classifications and present a diagnostic conundrum somewhere between a mild form of frontonasal dysplasia, oculoauriculofrontonasal syndrome, and Pai syndrome.
