Introduction. Antrochoanal polyp is a benign tumor of the maxillary sinus mucosa passing through the sinus ostium into the nasal cavity. Nasal obstruction is the most common symptom in all patients. Case Report. The authors present a case of a 28-year old female who was admitted to hospital with breathing difficulty, unilateral nasal secretion, headache and deformity of the nasal pyramid. Computerized tomography examination of the nose and paranasal sinuses indicated a possibility of giant antrochoanal polyp. The antrochoanal polyp was extirpated completely using forceps, under general endotracheal anesthesia. The length of the giant polyp was 16 cm. A follow-up examination of the nose and the right maxillary sinus was performed using a rigid endoscope, but no remains of the polyp were found. Conclusion. The authors believe that this is probably the first or a very rare published case of complete extirpation of a giant antrochoanal polyp of this size.

Cholesterol Granulomas of the Maxillary Sinus, considered an unusual presentation at this anatomical site. Over last 2 decades, only few cases are reported in the literature (English) and no available comprehensive reviews or studies on this entity. Herein in this article we present a comprehensive literature review of the available reports of 16 cases along with reporting a new case which we managed, aided with its histopathological pictures. This review article can be a reference for practitioners in the field of otorhinolaryngology who may encounter these cases. Also, it attracts the attention to consider this pathology among the differential diagnoses of nasal masses. Moreover, including a described pathological imaging may help young pathologist to identify this pathology.

The purpose of this article is to present the case of maxillofacial trauma patient with maxillary sinus fracture diagnosed with cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and to explore the applications of this technique in evaluating the maxillofacial region. A 23-year-old male patient attempted to our clinic who had an injury at midface with complaints of swelling, numbness. The patient was examined before in emergency center but any diagnosis was made about the maxillofacial trauma. The patient re-examined clinically and radiographically. A fracture on the frontal wall of maxillary sinus is determined with the aid of CBCT. The patient consulted with the department of maxillofacial surgery and it is decided that any surgical treatment was not necessary. The emerging technique CBCT would not be the primary choice of imaging maxillofacial trauma. Nevertheless, when advantages considered this imaging procedure could be the modality of choice according to the case.
