Abstract: The mucocele is commonly found in the oral cavity but is rare in the maxillary sinus. We report a case of mucocele in the left maxillary sinus in a male aged 25. In radiography, there was a dome-shaped radiopaque shadow seen on the floor of the left maxillary sinus. The surgical and histopathological findings indicated maxillary sinus mucocele.
