Abstract
Paranasal sinus malignancies are exceedingly rare. Chronic respiratory tract infections, nasal congestive symptoms and rhinosinusitis are much more prevalent in recent days and manifest many symptoms that overlap with those of sinus malignancy. Symptoms may be nonspecific and indolent for months or even years, leading to delay in diagnosis and consequent advanced diseased stage at presentation. The majority of maxillary sinus tumors in the literature have presented with advanced stage, resulting in generally poor survival outcomes. Hence, it is imperative that maxillofacial stomatologist should be aware of sinus pathologies, to diagnose early and it should alert them to include in differential diagnosis.
