Stenosis of anterior nares may be congenital or acquired. Acquired stenosis may be caused by the diseases which cause destruction of skin or normal cartilage. The various causes of acquired stenosis of anterior nares are burns, trauma, infections, etc. Iatrogenic stenosis of anterior nares is a rare condition. Doing simple excision of fibrosed tissue, with septoplasty and endoscopic adenoidectomy in a 5-year child, improved nasal breathing. Use of Mitomycin-C topical solution prevents recurrence of fibrosis, with good outcome.
前鼻孔狭窄可能是先天性的或后天获得性的。后天获得性狭窄可能由导致皮肤或正常软骨破坏的疾病引起。前鼻孔后天获得性狭窄的各种原因包括烧伤、创伤、感染等。前鼻孔医源性狭窄是一种罕见的情况。对一名5岁儿童进行简单的纤维化组织切除术，并同时进行鼻中隔成形术和内镜下腺样体切除术，改善了鼻通气。使用丝裂霉素-C局部溶液可防止纤维化复发，效果良好。
