Abstrakt: Nasal gliomas are rarely seen, congenital, benign and nonhereditary lesions. These are not true tumors that occur due to extradural malposition of ectopic glial tissue during embryologic development. These are generally diagnosed during childbirth and may have an intracranial extension with fibrous stalk. Treatment of these masses that cause nasal obstruction and cosmetic deformity according to location, is total excision. In this case report, we present an extranasal glioma case whose surgery was done when she was 11 days old. Nasal gliomas are congenital midline lesions in the newborn period and it is necessary to be careful in differential diagnosis and during surgery due to possible intracranial extension.
