Abstract:
Rhinoliths are foreign bodies of the nose, which may be found during the course of a routine examination or whe the show, if undetected for a long time, symptoms of nasal obstruction, similar to the ones of sinusitis. They require a high level of suspicion to be diagnosed and surgical removal is the treatment of choice. We present the case of a woman diagnosed of rhinolithiasis and we carry out a literature review.
