Mucocele is an accumulation of secretion products, desquamation, and inflammation within a body cavity: Localization in the mastoid is extremely rare. Erosion of bony walls and invasion of surrounding structures expose a patient to intra- and extracranial complications. Proper imaging work-up and complete removal through mastoidectomy is warranted.

Abstract
Mucocele is an accumulation of secretion products, desquamation, and inflammation within a body cavity: Localization in the mastoid is extremely rare. Erosion of bony walls and invasion of surrounding structures expose a patient to intra- and extracranial complications. Proper imaging work-up and complete removal through mastoidectomy is warranted.File in questo prodotto:
