Abstract

A 12-year-old girl presented with complaints of unilateral nasal obstruction, headache, snoring, and nasal discharge of a two-year history. Physical and nasal endoscopic examination revealed a large lesion obliterating completely the left nasal cavity. A diagnosis of concha bullosa pyocele was made by computed tomography and biopsy. Subtotal resection of the left middle turbinate by endoscopic approach was performed, which resulted in adequate nasal passage and drainage of the pyocele.
