The supernumerary nostril is one of the rarest congenital nasal deformities. Most of the reported cases published were in young patients, and surgery was performed according to the surgeon's preference. The authors report a case of supernumerary nostril in an adult with a large additional nasal cavity and describe an effective surgical method. The operation was performed with the following steps: alar base and open rhinoplasty incisions were performed to widen the surgical field of view. An incision was made around the additional nostril in the nasal vestibule. The tract of the additional nostril was circumferentially excised, and the raw areas were approximated. The remnant portion was completely removed to combine the two nasal cavities into one. Weir excision, augmentation rhinoplasty, and tip-plasty were performed. The authors were able to obtain satisfactory aesthetic and functional effects by performing separate surgical methods for a supernumerary nostril with large additional nasal cavities in an adult.
副鼻孔是最罕见的先天性鼻畸形之一。大多数已报道的病例均发生于年轻患者，且手术方法也根据术者的偏好而定。作者报告了一例成人副鼻孔的病例，该患者有一个较大的额外鼻腔，并描述了一种有效的手术方法。手术步骤如下：行鼻翼基底和开放式鼻整形术切口，以扩大手术视野。在鼻前庭处围绕额外的鼻孔做一个切口。环绕副鼻孔的通道被切除，使创面接近。将残留部分完全切除，将两个鼻腔合并成一个。行 Weir 切除、隆鼻术和鼻尖成形术。作者通过对成年人大的额外鼻腔的副鼻孔采用不同的手术方法，获得了满意的美学和功能效果。
