Mucocele of the paranasal sinus is accumulation of the mucoid secretion within the sinus caused by obstruction of the sinus ostium. We report a case of paranasal sinus mucocele presented with proptosis in right eye, diplopia, visual impairment and headache. Magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) revealed a polyp in right anterior ethmoid sinus and nasal cavity resulted in mucocele of the sphenoid, ethmoid and right frontal sinuses.
