摘要
Mucoceles are benign, epithelial-lined mucous cysts. Commonly mucoceles form secondary to obstruction of a sinus outflow tract or from mucosal gland entrapment from chronic infection, inflammation, iatrogenic trauma, external trauma, or neoplasm. We present a rare case of a nasal mucocele in a 37-year old male arising from a remote history of maxillofacial trauma: To our knowledge, mucoceles associated with nasal bone fractures have not been reported in the literature.
