Congenital Nasal Pyriform Aperture Stenosis as a rare manifestation of Trisome 8 Mosaicsm: a case report

Congenital Nasal Pyriform Aperture Stenosis (CNPAS) is an extremely rare cause of nasal airway obstruction. Clinically, it mimics choanal atresia in neonate. It needs to be differentiated because management differs from each. Pyriform aperture is located at the most anterior part of the nose and is...
