Abstract

Two patients presented with a transverse groove located between the lower third and upper two-thirds of the nose since birth. The alar and triangular cartilage attach themselves in a linear transverse fashion, the so called nasal line. It is important to recognize the nasal line as a localizing factor for milia, cysts and comedones. The nasal line is rather easily overlooked but awareness of its existence allows one to quickly confirm that it is not a rarity. We propose an embryological origin.
