Abstract
|
|
|
Mucocele is a benign, chronic, expansile and cyst-like lesion of the paranasal sinuses which contains sterile, mucoid secretions. The mucoceles are most frequently found in the frontal sinus. Obliteration of the frontal sinus and nasofrontal
duct,
with
removal of all mucosa, seems to prevent mucocele formation and is accepted standard at this time. Authors experienced a case of huge frontoethmoidal mucocele with frontal bone defect. We used osteoplastic flap technique through the bicoronal
approach to
remove the mucocele and the defect was obliterated with cancellous bone & galeo-frontalis flap. The postoperative result was good. (Korean J Otolaryngo1 39 : 5, 1996)
