title: [A case of pyocele in the sphenoid bone cavity].
abstract: A case is reported where the clinical symptomatology as well as the ophthalmological, radiological, endocrinological, and scintigraphic results offered significant evidence in favor of the presence of a tumor in the sellar region. The diagnosis of a pyocele originating in the sphenoid bone could be established intraoperatively only. Cysts originating in the sphenoid bone are described as what is usually called an "orbital inlet syndrome" from which the present case differs in some respects.
