Abstract:
Mucoceles are locally invasive but benign expansive cystic lesions that can arise within paranasal sinuses. Isolated sphenoid sinus Mucoceles (SSM) are quite rare, comprising less than 1% of all paranasal sinus mucoceles. Due to the critical position and proximity of the sphenoid sinus to vital structures, SSMs can cause a multitude of symptoms and complications. We report a case of a 53-year-old man who presented with sudden vision loss and was found to have an isolated SSM. Following surgical drainage and management of the SSM, the patient had full recovery of visual acuity upon discharge.
摘要:
粘膜瘤是局部侵入性但良性扩张性囊性病变,可出现在鼻旁窦内。孤立性蝶窦黏液囊肿(SSM)相当罕见,占所有鼻旁窦黏液囊肿的不到1%。由于蝶窦的关键位置和靠近重要结构,SSM可引起多种症状和并发症。我们报告了一例53岁的男子,他突然出现视力丧失,并被发现患有孤立的SSM。外科引流和SSM管理后,患者出院后视力完全恢复。
