Abstract

|
Sphenoid mucocele is vary rare. In 1872, rouge identified a sphenoid mucocele first, and then only about 130 case have been reported in the literatures since sphenoid mucocele was first described by Bery in 1889.
In Korea, sphenoid mucoceles have been reported in the literatures only about 10 cases since it was first described by Yoon et al, in 1988.
Paranasal sinus mucoceles are usually found in the frontal sinus and ethmoid sinus, but the sphenoid and maxillary sinus mucoceles are rare.
We experienced a case of sphenoid pyocele which caused blindness and was satisfactorily treated by endoscopic surgery.
So, we report our endoscopic surgical experience with review of literatures.
