[Cavernous hemangioma of the maxillary sinus].
A 67-year-old man had an intraosseous giant cavernous hemangioma in maxillary sinus. We describe the MRI features of the case and note the potential risk of performing office biopsies on such lesions. Our patient did not have profuse hemorrhage and preventive measures were taken.
