title: [Neoplasms of the maxillary sinus. The clinico-radiological considerations of dental interest].
abstract: Early diagnosis of the maxillary antrum carcinoma is of considerable difficulty. There are, however, signs and a refined symptomatology that the stomatologist can recognize when the tumour is still in its intrinsic form. Although the maxillary antrum tumors are rare, they present an extremely difficult diagnosis. The patient comes to us when the tumor has already invaded all the contiguous structures pertaining to the oral cavity. For early diagnosis we can avail ourselves, besides a conventional radiographic test, also of more specific analysis, as the computed tomography and radio therapy. These last image methodologies are also employed to establish a radiation treatment plan. Actually the best therapeutic treatment seems to be the multidisciplinary one, combining therapy with surgery.
