Abstract

Rhinophyma is a rare disease, causing disfiguring soft-tissue hypertrophy of the nose. Various medical and surgical treatment modalities have been tried, with limited success. We report a case of a 76-year-old man, where shave excision of the rhinophymatous tissue was done with satisfactory cosmetic outcome.
