    AbstractWe report a child with misdiagnosed nasal dermal sinus and frontonasal dermoid cyst, that was complicated by brain abscess. Familiarizing physicians with this peculiar clinical picture may allow prompt recognition of this malformation, with subsequent imaging study, and surgical treatment, aimed to preventing fatal infectious complications.Copyright © 2017 Elsevier Inc.
