Abstract
|

|
Mucoceles are chronic, expansile, cyst-like lesions of the paranasal sinuses. They contain sterile mucoid secretions and limited by the mucosa of the affected cavity. Although benign, growth of the mucocele produces local bone destruction. The majority of mucoceles are situated in the frontal and/or ethmoidal sinuses. Their treatment can be achieved only by means of surgery.
15 cases of mucocele were analyzed and discussed for the standpoint of locations, presenting symptoms and signs, causal factors, the methods of surgical approach and the results.
