A NEW FRONTAL DRAINAGE PATHWAY IN A PATIENT WITH BILATERAL FRONTAL MUCOCELE
Abstract
Frontal sinus and frontal recess anomalies are not very rare. These include bilateral or unilateral aplasia or hypoplasia, absence of frontal sinus ostium, hyperpneumatization and frontal cells (extensive Agger nasi). We reported first case of frontal sinus draining to the contralateral nasal cavity, in a patient with bilateral frontal mucocele.
