Rev Med Liege 2019, 74(11),606-610Abstract : Rhinophyma is the most advanced stage of rosacea (stage IV). It is a benign lesion but aesthetically disabling. We present through a major case of rhinophyma and a review of the literature the diagnostic modalities, the therapeutic alternatives and the risks to be known. Particularly, we detail the risks of oncologic transformation of these poorly known lesions.The management of these rare lesions is based on a collaboration between the surgeon and the dermatologist.
