Sphenoid Sinus: Mucous Retention Cyst vs. Mucocele

A mucocele results from obstruction of the drainage of a paransal sinus - resulting in expansile remodeling of the bone walls, surrounding a fluid filled space. These are most common in the frontal sinus. Obstruction of a single mucus gland creates a retention cyst, usually small and often asymptomatic - these are most common in the maxillary antrum.

[@krystamapplebeck384]

You need to see a doctor not ask one on KZbin. Go to your GP!!

I have a sphenoid mass, but I’ve had two ct scans and they both say different things. One says mucocele and that was found on ct plus mri. The second one years later says sphenoid retention cyst. So now I am confused :(. I saw an ent and he said watch and wait but lately I’ve been having horrible ear pain, cheek pain and constant bloody noses all on the left side which is where it is. How do I get a doctor to take this serious? I’m so tired of the pain and it makes me not want to live. They just keep giving me antibiotics and I’ll be ok for a bit then the pain comes right back.

Hello. How are you now

[@dezbolton5957]

hello can we have a update ?

[@Unek0777]

I had a CT Sinus done & today, I follow up with my ENT for my results. I am so scared. I read that I have “mucosal thickening in the sphenoid sinuses.” How is that treated? I’m scared to have any type of surgery UNLESS I am awake 😩

[@navie3644]

What’s the update did it go away without you doing surgery

[@Unek0777]

@@navie3644 Well I have Chronic Sinusitis. My ENT doesn’t think it’s bad enough to where I would have to have surgery. WHICH IS GREAT! But after him thoroughly reviewing my CT Scan results, he believes all or at least most of the inflammation is due to allergies. So, I’ve been referred to an allergist for allergy testing & we’ll just go from there. Really hoping that allergies is the culprit & I can work on treating that for relief 🙏🏽

I TRULY believe it was a direct result of my dr's advice to nasal irrigate with these nasal antibiotics/sterioids and BABY SHAMPOO!!!!!??? I am so scared it form a cancerous cyst bc I AM CERTAIN they werent there before. What are you thoughts?
