Endoscopic nasal surgery for mucocele and pyogenic mucocele of turbinate: Three case reports.

Background: Cases of turbinate mucocele or pyogenic mucocele are extremely rare. During nasal endoscopy, turbinate hypertrophy can be detected in patients with turbinate or pyogenic mucocele. However, in many instances, differentiating between turbinate hypertrophy and turbinate mucocele is difficult.

[Clinical effect of orbit fracture reconstruction under nasal endoscope].

Objective: To investigate the clinical effect of orbit blowout fracture reconstruction under nasal endoscope.

Methods: Forty-one cases of orbit fracture were reconstructed for lost or damaged orbit under nasal endoscope through maxillary sinus, ethmoidal sinus or the both.

Results: Among the 35 cases of orbit blowout fracture, enophthalmos in 33 cases were completely improved, 29 cases were symmetrical to normal eye after operation without diplopia except that 6 cases had slight enophthalmos accompanied with slight diplopia.
