Mucoceles of the paranasal sinuses represent a rare pathology corresponding to benign pseudo cystic tumors. It is caused either by chronic inflammation, allergy, post-surgical lesion, trauma, fibrous dysplasia or tumor lesion. The diagnosis of a mucocele is based on the history, physical examination, and radiologic findings. Treatment is surgical and when the compression caused by the mucocele compromises the functional prognosis, urgent management is required. We report the case of a 45-year-old patient who presented with a mucocele of the frontal sinus with orbital extension.
