Sumario:Sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma represents a rare and aggressive disease. Clinical presentation usually mimics other benign entities and consequently this malignancy is seldom diagnosed in early stages.

This article encompasses a case report of squamous cell carcinoma involving the ethmoidal, maxillary, and sphenoid sinuses invasive to bone and extending intracranially.
