We report a 74-year-old Japanese man with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) originating in the frontal sinus. It presented as a cutaneous nodule on his right forehead. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed invasion of the anterior wall of the ethmoid sinus, the frontal bone, and possibly the meninx by a frontal sinus carcinoma. Despite right fronto craniotomy with en bloc resection followed by two courses of radiation therapy and chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil and nedaplatin or TS-1 he died of disease-related causes 20 months later. Herein, we present a detailed description of this patient and a review of the published work. |
