A Case of Sphenoid Sinus Mucocele / 대한이비인후과학회지

Mucocele of the sphenoid sinus is a rare disease, and its signs and symptoms are different depending on multiple contiguous neurologic and vascular structures. So it is occasionally misdiagnosed as pituitary tumors. But careful radiologic evaluation including CT scan, helps in the correct assessment of this lesion. We have recently experienced one case of sphenoid sinus mucocele which presented with subtle nasal symptom. The mucocele was removed by endoscopic intranasal sphenoethmoidectomy.
