Abstract
|
|
|
|
Mucocele is a benign, encapsulated lesion, lined by epithelium and filled with mucus. Found mostly in the frontal and ethmoid sinus, sinonasal mucoceles cause several symptoms depending on the location. We report a case of mucocele found in the petrous apex that caused ear fullness. It was completely treated with endoscopic sphenoid marsupialization.
