Postoperative niucous cysts of the facial soft tissue are a rare complication after septorhinoplasty. We present a case of postseptorhinoplasty mucous cyst with a paranasal localisation. According to the literature available to us this localisation is extremely rare and has not been described before. Aetiology and possibilities to decrease the risk of such complications are discussed.

A case of trichinosis of the laryngeal muscles which was discovered accidentally during total laryngectomy for cancer of the larynx is presented. Trichinosis is a rare parasitic disease, particularly for the ENT specialist. It is difficult to identify during life. No specific treatment is available. In our case it is suggested that the chronic irritation of the larynx may have resulted in the growth of the cancer.

Behçet's syndrome is a rare, progressive and systemic disease. It causes scrotal ulcers, bilateral conjunctivitis and recurrent oral aphthous ulcers. Genetic factors, mechanisms of autoimmunity as well as environmental factors interact in the etiology of the syndrome, according to the most recently developed hypotheses. The diagnostic and therapeutic traps which might appear during the contemporary O.R.L. practice are presented here, considering the oral ulcers of a frequently common appearance and especially the dysphagia which might be confused with many other clinicopathological entities.
