Abstract

<p>A 42-year-old male patient presented to our hospital due to a huge nasopalatine duct cyst that was associated with eosinophilic sinusitis. The patient complained of bilateral nasal obstruction. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging showed a nasopalatine duct cyst that elevated the floor of the bilateral nasal cavity, and a nasal polyp in the left nasal cavity. We performed mucosal resection, to the extent that was possible, in the floor of the nasal cavity, and endoscopic sinus surgery. Nasal polyps in the left nasal cavity were resected and the left ethmoid sinus was opened. The nasal obstruction was resolved after surgery, and the patient had a good clinical course.</p>
