Maxillary sinus adenoid cystic carcinoma (MSACC) is a rare malignancy with a propensity for distant metastasis CASE PRESENTATION: We report a case of a 55 years-old male who was admitted to our department with a complaint of right nasal obstruction and anosmia. Clinical examination, radiological investigations and histopathological examination found a mass compatible with advanced adenoid cystic carcinoma of the right maxillary sinus. Treatment consisted of radio chemotherapy.
Adenoid cystic carcinoma of the maxillary sinus may represent a serious diagnostic challenge. It should be considered in the differential diagnosis of Sino nasal tumors even if it's rare.
上颌窦腺样囊性癌(MSACC)是一种罕见的恶性肿瘤,有远处转移的倾向。病例报告:我们报告一例55岁男性,因右侧鼻塞和嗅觉减退入院。临床检查、影像学检查和组织病理学检查发现一个与右侧上颌窦晚期腺样囊性癌相符的肿块。治疗包括放化疗。结论:上颌窦腺样囊性癌可能是一个严重的诊断挑战。即使它很罕见,在鼻窦肿瘤的鉴别诊断中也应予以考虑。
