Mucous cyst of the sphenoid sinus.
Sphenoid sinus mucous cysts are rare, benign, expansile masses, which can form mucoceles if the entire sinus is filled. Due to their close proximity to numerous important anatomical structures, they can cause a variety of different symptoms. The incidental finding of a sphenoid sinus mucous cyst during cephalometric radiology for orthodontic analysis is reported.
