Question

A 3-year-old child has been found to have a 1.2CM purplish-red cyst in the left nostril. The parents are inquiring about the treatment methods. The child has no previous treatment history, and the parents hope to understand how to treat the cyst, whether surgery is necessary, and if the surgery will involve cutting the nose.

Answer

Nasal cysts can be categorized into mucous cysts, mucosal cysts, and maxillary bone odontogenic cysts. Currently, micro-invasive treatment using plasma technology is utilized, which offers advantages over traditional surgery, such as high safety, strong controllability, significant efficacy, and functional preservation. This technology can dissolve the cyst, reduce its size, and shrink hypertrophied tissues. Due to the use of low-temperature treatment, postoperative reactions are minimal, with almost no pain and minimal skin damage. The surgery is quick, effectively reducing postoperative complications.
