“Concha bullosa” is the term used for pneumatized or air cell-containing middle turbinate. It is usually asymptomatic. However, depending on its size, contact with the nasal septum and infringement to the ostio-meatal complex, it may cause nasal obstruction and sinusitis. Rarely, it turns into a “pyocele”. Giant or extensive concha bullosa is seen as an enlarged portion of middle turbinate. It is diagnosed through paranasal computarized tomography. Endoscopic partial medial resection of the enlarged turbinate is sufficient for its surgical treatment. We herewith present a case with extensive concha bullosa, which transformed into a pyocele and extended to the nasal vestibule. It had caused total nasal obstruction and complicated with the sinusitis on the same side.
