Abstract

Mucoepidermoid carcinomas of minor salivary gland origin rarely arise in the nasal cavity. A patient with such a tumor in association with bilateral sphenoid sinus mucoceles is presented. This diagnosis was established preoperatively by CT and allowed an attempt at curative surgery to be made. The CT and pathological findings are discussed.
