Giant frontal sinus mucocoele. Report of two cases.
The giant frontal sinus mucocoele is best approached surgically using a bi-coronal flap to give an ample view of orbital and intra-cranial extensions. The size of the cystic cavity necessitates packing rather than obliteration with autografts. Reconstruction of the frontal bone may be carried out as a secondary procedure.
