We report a child with misdiagnosed nasal dermal sinus and frontonasal dermoid cyst, that was complicated by brain abscess. Familiarizing physicians with this peculiar clinical picture may allow prompt recognition of this malformation, with subsequent imaging study, and surgical treatment, aimed to preventing fatal infectious complications.
我们报告了一名患有误诊为鼻皮样窦和额鼻皮样囊肿的儿童,该病例并发脑脓肿。让医生熟悉这种特殊的临床表现,可能有助于及时识别这种畸形,随后进行影像学检查和手术治疗,以预防致命的感染并发症。
