Maxillary sinus melanoma is a rare mucosal melanoma difficult to diagnose in the absence of pigmentation. Intranasal masses presenting with the features of occult malignancy and rapid progression should always be investigated in the line of melanoma irrespective of pigmentation. The histopathological and immunohistochemical examination helps to confirm the diagnosis.
上颌窦黑色素瘤是一种罕见的黏膜黑色素瘤,在无色素沉着时难以诊断。无论有无色素沉着,凡具有隐匿性恶性肿瘤特征且进展迅速的鼻内肿物,均应按照黑色素瘤进行检查。组织病理学和免疫组织化学检查有助于确诊。
