Intracranial mucoceles have been previously reported as direct extradural extensions of mucoceles of the paranasal sinuses. We describe a patient with 2 silent mucoceles isolated within the parenchyma of the frontal lobe of the brain. The patient had undergone multiple previous intranasal polypectomy and ethmoidectomy procedures, and the unsuspected mucoceles were discovered on a computed tomographic scan obtained to evaluate recurrent rhinosinusitis symptoms. Craniotomy was required for removal of the mucoceles.
颅内黏液囊肿先前已被报道为鼻窦黏液囊肿的直接硬膜外扩展。我们描述了一名患者，其额叶脑实质内孤立存在2个无症状黏液囊肿。该患者先前接受过多次鼻内息肉切除术和筛窦切除术，此次因评估复发性鼻窦炎症状而进行计算机断层扫描时意外发现了这些黏液囊肿。黏液囊肿的切除需要开颅手术。
