Abstract

|
Mucocele is a expansile cyst-like lesion of the paranasal sinus. Most of the mucoceles
are found in the frontal sinus and ethmoid sinus, and associated with the blockage of
the natural sinus ostium. The authors experienced a case of huge mucocele caused by
metallic foreign body injury at Korean war. This mucocele involved both frontal sinus
and supraorbital cells. It was firmly attached to dura. this case was successfully treated
with external frontal approach and abdominal fat tissue obliteration. Therefore, we
present this case with a brief review of the literature.
