Abstract
Sinonasal neoplasms form a diverse group in the routine clinical otolaryngology practice. The uncommon pathologies in guise of common clinical presentations require meticulous diagnostic evaluation and timely intervention. Hemato/lymphoid neoplasms are infrequent in the maxillary sinus and mimic common infective and inflammatory conditions. Here, we report two patients who presented with usual symptoms and imaging findings, histopathology following surgery revealed: plasmablastic lymphoma and plasmacytoma. We report these cases for their rarity, clinical dilemma, atypical presentation and better quality of life with adjuvant therapy.
