Paranasal sinus mucoceles in children. 1979

M J Siegel, and G D Shackelford, and W H McAlister

The clinical and radiographic features of paranasal sinus mucoceles in 6 pediatric patients are discussed. These lesions may be associated with clinical signs of a periorbital or intracranial mass. Characteristic radiographic findings can suggest the preoperative diagnosis, although a sphenoid sinus mucocele may simulate more serious conditions.
