Concha bullosa is an aerated turbinate in the nose. It is a common anatomic variant that can develop a mucocele if obstructed, which can further progress to become a mucopyocele if infected. A mucopyocele can expand and cause destruction of neighboring tissues. A review of the literature revealed only 10 cases previously reported. We describe 2 cases of mucocele and 2 cases of mucopyocele.
泡性鼻甲是鼻腔内充气的鼻甲。它是一种常见的解剖变异，如果受阻可发展为黏液囊肿，若感染则可进一步发展为脓性黏液囊肿。脓性黏液囊肿可扩张并导致邻近组织破坏。文献回顾显示此前仅报道过10例。我们描述了2例黏液囊肿和2例脓性黏液囊肿病例。
