Abstract
A case of a pneumocele concerning the maxillary sinus causing trigeminal irritation is presented. Pneumoceles are rare conditions of an abnormal dilatation of a paranasal sinus containing only air, lined by unremarkable mucosa, and associated with a bony defect. Symptoms, diagnostic findings, therapy, possible causes, and pathogenesis are discussed.Entities:
