ABSTRACT
Ameloblastomas are rare tumors of the paranasal sinus, which are considered benign yet locally aggressive neoplasms in the vast majority of cases. Although ameloblastomas involving the maxillary sinus are often reported, cases involving the frontal sinus are rare. We present the case of a 45-year-old male patient with recurred ameloblastoma of the left maxillary and frontal sinuses. (J Clinical Otolaryngol 2015;26:92-96)
