In this study, we have pointed out the effectiveness of the endoscopic approach for the treatment of three children affected by mucoceles. Two patients complained of visual disturbances white one complained of persistent bitemporal headache. None of these cases was affected by cystic fibrosis. The endoscopic treatment consisted mainly of drainage and marsupialization of the mucocele. These young patients were free of any recurrence and symptoms at 36, 30, and 16 months of follow-up, respectively. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
