Congenital nasal midline lesions are rarely observed pathologies. While relatively frequently encountered lesions are dermoid cyst, glioma, encephalocele, nasal polyp and epidermoid cyst, an other very rare reason is the congenital panfollicular nevus. The treatment of this syndrome appearing with a recurrent discharge in clinic is the surgical excision. We will hereby present the excision of the case of congenital panfollicular nevus with three different fistula openings.
