Mucocele of the petrous apex is very rare, only three cases having been reported. Since this area is inaccessible to direct examination, imaging, preferably high resolution computed tomography (HR CT) is essential. We report a case showing an eroding, non enhancing mass with sharp, lobulated contours, within the petrous apex. The presence of a large air cell on the opposite side suggested a mucocele.
岩尖黏液囊肿非常罕见，仅报道过3例。由于该区域无法直接检查，影像学检查，最好是高分辨率计算机断层扫描（HR CT）至关重要。我们报告1例病例，显示岩尖内有一个侵蚀性、无强化的肿块，轮廓清晰、呈分叶状。对侧有一个大气房提示为黏液囊肿。
