In this case, a 70-year-old female patient presented with large forehead swelling that occurred 2 years prior, with slow progressive enlargement that mimicked the behavior of a neoplasm. There was severe inferior displacement of the right orbital globe to the level of the nares. Brain computed tomography showed a large expansive lesion in the right frontal sinus with bony wall thinning without destruction or erosion. Brain magnetic resonance imaging showed high signal intensity of the contents in T1- and T2-weighted images with only peripheral enhancement after contrast administration. These features were consistent with a typical right frontal mucocele.
在该病例中，一名70岁女性患者出现两年前就已出现的前额部巨大肿胀，呈缓慢进行性增大，类似肿瘤的表现。右侧眶眼球严重向下移位至鼻孔水平。脑部计算机断层扫描显示右侧额窦有一个巨大的膨胀性病变，骨壁变薄但无破坏或侵蚀。脑部磁共振成像显示在T1加权和T2加权图像中内容物呈高信号强度，注射造影剂后仅周边强化。这些特征符合典型的右侧额窦黏液囊肿。
