“…11 Hutcheon (1941) reported first case of cholesteatoma of maxillary sinus, in which sign and symptoms resembled that of malignancy of maxillary sinus thus despite the rarity of the lesion antral cholesteatoma should be kept as differential diagnosis. 12 Histologically, cholesteatoma is consisting of three components: Keratin debris core, squamous epithelium and fibrous stroma, last two components being termed as matrix. This is non-neoplastic expansile lesion with capacity of bone erosion due to proteolytic enzymes.…”

Paranasal sinuses are normally lined by respiratory mucosa which is pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium. Cholesteatoma of paranasal sinus is a condition where respiratory mucosa is either partially or totally replaced by hyperkeratotic squamous epithelium which lead to formation of lamellar sheet of keratin and this condition is known as cholesteatoma. We report one such rare occurrence of maxillary sinus cholesteatoma managed endoscopically.

“…Cholesteatoma of the maxillary sinus is a rare condition. Hutcheon [1] reported the first case of maxillary sinus in 1941. The symptoms and signs were more suggestive of carcinoma of the antrum and adjacent nasal wall.…”

“…Cholesteatoma of the maxillary sinus occurs when the normal respiratory epithelium (ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelium) that lines the sinus is replaced by keratinized squamous epithelium. The first reported cholesteatoma of the maxillary sinus was by Hutcheon et al [1] in 1941. He considered it a malignant lesion because of its erosive nature and rapid uncontrolled growth.…”

Cholesteatoma is a relatively common pathology in the middle ears and mastoid cavity, but is a rare disease for the paranasal sinuses, especially in the maxillary sinus. It should be considered in the differential diagnosis of slowly expanding lesions of the sinuses and is difficult to distinguish from malignancy. The author describes a rare case of cholesteatoma in the maxillary sinus of an elderly woman presenting swelling at hard palate over 3 months. The swelling began at the right side hard palate and gradually enlarged over 2 months. She had right side facial swelling and nasal obstruction. Several biopsies were performed under local anesthesia using the transnasal, sinuscope and sublabial approaches (Caldwell-luc). The last histopathological report showed consistency with cholesteatoma. The patient was operated by medial maxillectomy and complete tumor removal. The patient experienced disease free survival about 18 months and afterwards she died from cerebrovascular disease. This is the second case in Asia and first case reported in Southeast Asia.

“…Cranial sites have included the temporal bone, orbit, mandible and, in rare cases, the paranasal sinuses. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] When paranasal sinus involvement has occurred, the most common sites of origin have been the frontal sinus and the ethmoid sinus. 4 In a review of the literature published in 1991, Hartman and Stankiewicz found only 20 reported cases of cholesteatoma of any paranasal sinuses.…”

“…Th e fi rst case of a cholesteatoma of the maxillary sinus was reported by Hutcheon in 1941. 1 A literature review by Storper and Newman in 1992 found 10 previously reported cases of a maxillary sinus cholesteatoma, and the authors added 1 case of their own. 4 Since then, new cases were added by Vaz et al 5 in 2000, Yağci et al 6 in 2003 (a case of a "horseshoe" maxillary sinus harboring a cholesteatoma), and Viswanatha et al 8 in 2007.…”

A 10-year-old boy presented with a complaint of a leftsided nasal obstruction with an associated foul-smelling discharge. Physical examination and anterior rhinoscopy revealed that a whitish, friable mass had completely fi lled the left nasal cavity. On computed tomography, a softtissue mass was seen fi lling the cavity and extending to the paranasal sinuses with bone erosion. A biopsy of the mass suggested that it represented a cholesteatoma. Th e lesion was removed via nasal endoscopy, and histopathology confi rmed the diagnosis of a cholesteatoma. No recurrence was noted during 6 months of follow-up. Cholesteatoma of the paranasal sinuses is a rare entity, as only a few dozen cases have been reported in the literature.
