Sumario:The involvement of maxillary sinuses in patients taking bone-related medications has not been comprehensively considered in the literature, mostly dental. Considering the fact that paranasal sinuses are often captured in dental radiographs, it is incumbent upon dental practitioners to recognize abnormal presentations in the paranasal sinuses to ensure the appropriate management of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). We present a case of a giant cell tumor (GCT) with atypical chronic sinusitis manifestation leading to MRONJ.
