Clin Exp Dermatol. 1996 May;21(3):220-1. doi: 10.1111/j.1365-2230.1996.tb00068.x.

Abstract

We report on three patients with black or white comedones arranged along the nasal groove in the distal third of the nose between the alar and triangular cartilages. This peculiar disorder is probably more common than would appear from the small number of cases so far reported in the literature.
