ABSTRACT
The presence of heterotopic brain tissue in the head and neck region is exceptional. Most reported cases have been observed in the nasal region and are called nasal gliomas. The case of a 10-month-old boy with heterotopic brain tissue on the soft palate and nasopharynx is reported. Surgical treatment was successful and no complications or recurrences have been observed in 7 years of follow-up. The main pathogenic theories and nomenclature are analyzed.
