    Area of Science:

    • Otolaryngology
    • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • Maxillary sinus mucoceles are cystic lesions that can cause diagnostic challenges.
    • Understanding their etiopathogenesis, clinical presentation, and radiological features is crucial for effective management.

    Observation:

    • The study reviewed three cases of maxillary sinus mucoceles over 22 years.
    • These lesions often exhibit complex, polymorphic, and uncharacteristic clinical and radiological appearances.

    Findings:

    • Exploratory puncture is highlighted as a valuable and easily performed diagnostic tool for maxillary sinus mucoceles.
    • Surgical intervention is the definitive treatment, with complete cyst removal essential to minimize recurrence risk.

    Implications:

    • Accurate diagnosis of maxillary sinus mucoceles can be improved with targeted procedures like exploratory puncture.
    • Complete surgical excision is critical for successful long-term outcomes and preventing mucoceles from returning.
