A 31-year-old woman presented with a large oro-nasal communication (ONC), loss of vomer and significant nasal cartilage and nose deformity. Physical examination of the patient revealed a typical midline destructive lesion (MDL) with nasal septum and hard/soft palate perforation with a friable granular surface and a large amount of necrotic tissues. Medical history was unremarkable and the patient denied previous local trauma, including surgical procedures or drug assumption.Pathological examination revealed the presence of necrosis and chronic inflammation.MDLs have numerous etiologies. Signs and symptoms of MDLs can be similar and an accurate diagnosis may be elusive.We hereby present detailed clinicopathological findings.
