Cysticercosis, caused by infestation with the pork tapeworm Taenia solium, is known to commonly involve the brain, muscles and subcutaneous tissue. Diagnosing cysticercosis can be difficult as its clinical presentation is usually non-specific. When involving subcutaneous tissue, it can present as firm, non-tender, solitary or multiple nodules. We report a case of subcutaneous cysticercosis at the nasion mimicking a nasal dermoid.
