Frontal mucocele is not commonly masked as upper lid abscess.A 72-year-old Chinese man with underlying
hyperthyroidism complained of left upper eyelid swelling of 6 months duration. The swelling had persisted and
worsen when intravenous antibiotic was changed oral type. Visual acuity on presentation was hand motion and
reverse relative afferent pupillary defect was present. Because the swelling was large and resulted in mechanical
ptosis and ophthalmoplegia, a CT imaging was performed, which showed huge left frontal mucocele eroding the
supereromedial orbital rim. The left globe was displaced inferolaterally but there was no extension into brain
parenchyma. Fundus examination showed pale optic disc with dull macula. Old laser marks were seen at peripheral
fundus. Referral to ortholaryngologist was made and endoscopic sinus surgery and evacuation of mucopyocoele was
done. Culture and sensitivity of the fluid showed no organism. He recovered well postoperatively with additional two
weeks of antibiotics. We highlight the necessity of surgical drainage of mucocele, following a course of antibiotic.

8.Appendiceal mucocele
Journal of Practical Medicine 2005;0(6):18-20
On the occasion of one case of appendiceal mucocele, the authors studied on etiology, classification, clinical signs, diagnosis and treatment of this disease. Results: Appendiceal mucocele is a rare injury form of appendix, it stretches out and full of mucosity. It might be a benign or malignant injury. Clinical symptoms are not typical therefore it is difficult to diagnose before operating; most of the cases were discovered by accident. Recently, they can preoperative diagnose by ultrasound and CT scan. If the injury is benign, the appendix is removed simply, even through endoscopy, but if the injury is doubt to be malignant, it is necessary to resect the right colon. Although it is a malignant injury, the prognosis is still good as a colon cancer.

Epiglottic abscess may result from a coalescent epiglottic infection or secondary infection of an epiglottic mucocele. The lesion has the possibility of compressing the potential airway and thus warrants rapid assessment and treatment. The authors experienced three cases of the epiglottic abscess and report them with a review of literature.
