| Abstract;Almost all malignant tumors in the nose and paranasal sinuses occur primarily in the maxillary sinus, and are pathohistologically classified as squamous cell carcinoma. Transitional cell carcinoma is rare in the nose and paranasal sinuses. Three patients with transitional cell carcinoma in the maxillary sinus were encountered. Of the 3 patients, it was the primary carcinoma in 2 patients, and metastatic carcinoma from the bladder in the other patient. The 2 patients with the primary carcinoma in the maxillary sinus, of which the disease stage was T3, underwent excision of the entire upper jaw including the eyeballs. Patient 1 died of metastasis due to delay of radical surgery. In Patient 2, good results were obtained by a combination of 3 treatment (chemotherapy, radiation and operation) methods. The patient with metastatic carcinoma from the bladder underwent total excision at the time of incision of the maxillary sinus for examination, but died from systemic metastases. Metastasis of transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder to the maxillary sinus is very rare, and it was considered to have metastasized via circulation. (author abst.) |
