Mucocele is benign, slow-growing, mucous-filled cystic lesions that arise in the paranasal sinuses. It causes progressive distension of the bony walls and induces compressive symptoms. Surgical treatment of paranasal sinus mucoceles includes endoscopic approach or external approach. The authors report a patient of frontal mucocele who presented with a history of progressive unilateral protrusion. Computed tomography scan revealed a large mucocele of the frontal sinus with orbital extension on the same side. He was successfully treated with endoscopic marsupialization without any serious complications.
黏液囊肿是一种良性、生长缓慢、充满黏液的囊性病变,发生于鼻窦。它会导致骨壁逐渐扩张并引发压迫症状。鼻窦黏液囊肿的手术治疗包括内镜手术或外部手术。作者报告了一名额部黏液囊肿患者,有进行性单侧突出病史。计算机断层扫描显示额窦有一个大的黏液囊肿,且向同侧眼眶扩展。他通过内镜袋形缝合术成功治愈,无任何严重并发症。
