  • Title: Frontoethmoidal mucocele associated with bilateral increased intraocular pressure and proptosis.
    Author: Chandra A, Lim M, Scott E, Morsman D.
    Journal: Can J Ophthalmol; 2007 Feb; 42(1):143-4. PubMed ID: 17361262.
    Abstract:
    CASE REPORT: We describe the case of a 53-year-old man presenting with bilateral proptosis and raised intraocular pressure. Computed tomography imaging revealed these signs to be secondary to a frontoethmoidal mucocele with bilateral orbital invasion. COMMENTS: Bilateral increased intraocular pressure is unusual in cases of frontoethmoidal mucoceles, but prompt imaging and treatment can prevent permanent visual loss.
