Nasal glioma
Glioma, also known as “glial heterotopia” is a non-neoplastic lesion consisting of neuroglial tissue without the communication to the central nervous sytem. It commonly occurs at birth or within 1-2 years of life; and has no genetic predisposition. Glioma can be categorized as extranasal, intranasal, or mixed lesions. Extranasal lesion (as seen here) is the most common form, comprising approximately 60% of all glioma. It presents as a 1-3cm subcutaneous firm mass along the bridge of the nose.
