Ethmoid Mucocele Presenting as an Orbital Mass
Pediatric Emergency Care, 12/18/08
Diaz MCG et al. - The case of an 11-year-old male with an ethmoid sinus mucocele who presented to the emergency department with an orbital mass. Mucoceles are mucus-filled, epithelial-lined sacs that slowly develop in the paranasal sinuses when sinus drainage is obstructed by inflammatory processes, trauma, or prior surgery. They are rare in children and should be suspected in patients with progressive headache or orbital complaints.
