Surgical Management of a Recurrent Orbit-Eroding Mucocele Associated With Frontal-Ethmoidal Sinus Inverted Papilloma.

The development of orbit-eroding mucocele associated with inverted papilloma has been rarely reported., Here, the authors present a case and surgical management of a patient with orbit-eroding mucocele associated with inverted papilloma who declined craniotomy. A combined approach utilizing frontal endoscopic sinus surgery and external sub-brow anterior orbitotomy was used to explore, drain, and excise the mucocele and inverted papilloma. Gelatin sponges soaked in gentamicin were used to cover the exposed dura and to protect the orbital content from the frontal sinus cavity.A fronto-ethmoidal sinus inverted papilloma associated with recurrent orbit-eroding mucocele was excised by combined transnasal endoscopic and external sub-brow anterior orbitotomy approach using stereotactic navigation.
