Resumo: The nasolabial cyst is a non-odontogenic and rare developmental cyst. The patient in question is a 77-year-old male presenting swelling with a soft consistency and fluctuating on palpation, located in the infra-orbital region. The lesion caused elevation of the nasal dorsum and facial asymmetry accompanied by painful symptoms. Cone-beam computed tomography revealed a well-defined area of density similar to soft tissue, leading to diagnostic hypotheses of nasolabial cyst and epidermoid cyst. The surgical procedure consisted of a right paranasal and infraorbital incision in an inverted "L" shape. After divulsion, the lesion was visualized with the infraorbital plexus positioned over the capsule, being removed by enucleation. The histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of nasolabial cyst. The upper location of the cyst in the infraorbital region suggests an origin from epithelial remnants of the nasolacrimal duct. After 9 days the suture was removed with satisfactory healing of the surgical wound.
