Large Frontoethmoidal Mucocele: Treatment and Review

Abstract

ABSTRACT Paranasal sinus mucoceles are slowly expanding cystic lesions leading to sinus expansion, bony erosion and ultimately extension into the orbit and cranial cavity. Mucoceles account for 4 to 8.5% of expanding orbital lesions, with frontal and ethmoidal sinuses as the most common sites. We describe a large frontoethmoidal mucocele that presented with diplopia, headache and displacement of globe and was successfully managed by endoscopic sinus surgery.
