Abstract
A case of adenocarcinoma, not otherwise specified, was documented, mainly from a radiographic perspective. The lesion, which occurred in the maxillary sinus, destroyed only a moderate amount of bone considering the tumor’s large size. There was no sign of necrosis on either computed tomography or magnetic resonance images. This case demonstrated one of the radiographic characteristics of this type of tumor: moderate bone destruction considering the area of the maxillary sinus occupied.
