The nasal cavity structures are prone to different anatomical variations; one of these is concha bullosa, which best known as pneumatization of the nasal turbinate. This pneumatization is a rare phenomenon to in the inferior turbinate. We report the case of an incidental finding of inferior turbinate concha bullosa in a 30- year-old female who presented with nasal obstruction and headache. While evaluating the patient's computed tomography image, a pneumatized right inferior turbinate accidentally found. Our patient treated medically without surgical intervention and showed good improvement in her symptoms. Physicians should be aware of the presence of such a rare variation that may lead to serious nasal symptoms if it is large enough, they should keep it in the differential diagnosis and with deal with it accordingly.
