Nasolabial cyst (NC) is a rare non-odontogenic soft tissue cyst occurring in sublabial area and anterior maxillary region. This cyst is frequently asymptomatic with the most usual sign being ala of the nose elevation. They are usually diagnosed in early stages because of cosmetic problems. Use of contrast medium is important for visualizing the definite extensions of NC primarily in cases when plain radiographs may not show any detectable changes. We report a case of Nasolabial cyst (NC) in a 35 year old female patient and discuss the diagnosis by contrast medium, differential diagnosis and treatment.
