Malignant tumours of the nasal cavities and paranasal sinuses are uncommon. They constitute less than one per cent of all tumours and less than three per cent of head and neck tumours. Carcinoma of the maxillary sinus is the most common of the sinonasal malignancies. In this anatomical site a case of adenocarcinoma, not otherwise specified, was documented, mainly from a histological perspective and discussed considering all types of differential diagnoses.
