Rhinoliths : an unusual diagnosis of nasal obstruction

Abstract EN

In our modern medical practice, rhino-liths are a rare occurrence, but they ought to be con-sidered in the differential diagnosis of a long-standing nasal obstruction.

They are known to cause unilateral nasal discharge, facial pain, headache, epistaxis, and nasal obstruction.

We present two cases that we en-countered in our practice, and discuss them with a review of the existing literature.
