This article reports a case of spontaneous extracranial pneumatocele and introduces a new simple terminology for this clinical entity. A 10-year-old Saudi girl presented with left tympanoparietomastoid swelling. It was found to be fluctuant and full of air. On exploration, bony septae were found arising from the skull aponeurosis, the cranial boundary was elevated, and an ivory, cancellous bony swelling was over the root of the zygoma. No naked eye anatomic communication to the mastoid air cell was found. The mastoid pneumatization was within normal limits. All preoperative, operative, and postoperative investigations are presented. The authors introduce temporocele as a new term applied to this extracranial spontaneous pneumatocele.
本文报告了一例自发性颅外气囊肿病例,并为这一临床实体引入了一种新的简单术语。一名10岁的沙特女孩出现左鼓室颞乳突肿胀。发现其有波动感且充满气体。探查时发现骨间隔起自颅骨腱膜,颅界抬高,颧骨根部有象牙色、松质骨肿胀。未发现与乳突气房的肉眼可见的解剖学连通。乳突气化在正常范围内。展示了所有术前、术中和术后检查。作者引入颞气囊肿作为应用于这种颅外自发性气囊肿的新术语。
