Abstract
Maxillary sinus squamous cell carcinoma is the most frequent type of Maxillary sinus carcinoma, and over 80% of Maxillary sinus squamous cell carcinomas are detected at an advanced stage because of a lack of typical symptoms, and making curative surgery sometimes impossible. We report a case of advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the left maxillary sinus, which had an aggressive clinical course but a complete response to chemoradiation. A discussion of the clinical course and treatment of squamous cell carcinoma is presented, along with a review of the pertinent literature.
