Endoscopic treatment of maxillary sinus mucocele.
Four patients with mucocele of maxillary sinus, observed between 1995 and 2001, with two years' follow-up, are described. Aim of the present study was to establish whether endoscopic marsupialization of the maxillary sinus mucocele is adequate resolutive treatment without complete removal of the mucocele wall, using more invasive approaches. The surgical procedure used was endoscopic endonasal ...
متن کاملVisual loss: a rare complication of maxillary sinus mucocele.
Mucoceles are cystic formations lined with respiratory epithelium that contain a mucoid or mucopurulent fluid.
