Abstract
A supernumerary nostril is a very rare deformity. We encountered one case of a supernumerary nostril, but it was a type which had not been reported previously. We devised a surgical technique based on a new concept, and obtained good results. We also attempted to classify various shapes of supernumerary nostril and ways of treating them, and report our findings here.
