ABSTRACT
The article deals with the issues of clinical manifestations, differential diagnosis, the present-day principles of treatment of external nose neoplasms. The data are based on the literature review and the authors’ own clinical experience. Both benign, precancerous, and malignant neoplasms can be found on the skin of the external nose. A large number of mistakes in the diagnosis of this pathology on the part of otorhinolaryngologists calls for systematization of the approach to the management of these patients. The high frequency of malignization of external nose skin neoplasms should be taken into consideration during the management of these patients at the outpatient stage and cause an oncologic alarm in a specialist of any profile. The specific features of the external nose anatomic structure, the diversity of the neoplasms clinic emphasizes the need for a multidisciplinary approach to this pathology and the succession between the related specialists: otorhinolaryngologists, dermatologists, and oncologists.
