The nose, a facial organ, not only plays a crucial role in olfaction and respiration but also has a major impact on the overall anatomy of the face. However, congenital anomalies affecting the nose can be challenging as they require both functional impairments and cosmetic concerns. Facial maldevelopments during the early embryonic period induce a wide-ranging nasal deformity. Understanding the etiology of these anomalies is essential for healthcare professionals involved in diagnosis, treatment, and management. Based on current literature, this review aims to present the spectrum of congenital disorders of the nose and a summary of their embryologic etiology, clinical presentations, and therapeutic interventions.
鼻子作为面部器官，不仅在嗅觉和呼吸中起着关键作用，而且对面部的整体解剖结构也有重大影响。然而，影响鼻子的先天性异常可能具有挑战性，因为它们既涉及功能障碍，又关乎外观问题。胚胎早期的面部发育异常会导致各种各样的鼻畸形。了解这些异常的病因对于参与诊断、治疗和管理的医疗专业人员至关重要。基于当前文献，本综述旨在介绍鼻子先天性疾病的范围，并总结其胚胎学病因、临床表现和治疗干预措施。
