Abstract
Nasal septal hematoma (NSH) is a relatively rare emergency in otolaryngology. The disease is more common in children due to softer cartilage and looser anchoring of the mucoperichondrial. Trauma to the nose or face is the most common cause, while NSH following a cold has been rarely reported. Urgent treatment is required to prevent serious complications such as saddle nose deformity, nasal tip deepening, abscess formation, and subsequent intracranial sequelae such as cavernous sinus thrombosis. We present the case of a 4-year-old child diagnosed with a spontaneous bilateral NSH.
