Abstract
Four new examples of fistula of the dorsum of the nose were studied. The clinical appearance of a tuft of hair protruding from a pit on the midline of the dorsum of the nose is virtually pathognomonic; the fistula communicates with a dermoid cyst located in the deeper tissues. Though the condition is a cutaneous marker of an underlying lesion, It has been almost completely neglected in the dermatologic literature.
