| Abstract: | A case of rhabdomyosarcoma of the maxillary sinus is reported. A brief review of the origin, histomorphology, classification, clinical presentation, behavior, prognosis, and treatment is given relative to occurrence in the maxillary antrum. Misinterpretation of the microscopic findings can delay the histologic diagnosis. An error in tissue diagnosis may be minimized by awareness of a chance encounter with this lesion. |
