    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Pathology
    • Diagnostic Imaging

    Background:

    • Rhabdomyosarcoma of the maxillary sinus is a rare malignancy.
    • High-grade undifferentiated tumors can pose diagnostic challenges.
    • Accurate diagnosis is critical for effective treatment planning.

    Observation:

    • A 26-year-old male presented with a maxillary sinus tumor initially misdiagnosed as anaplastic Ki-1 positive lymphoma.
    • Histological features of high undifferentiation complicated the initial diagnosis.
    • The tumor progressed to involve the bone marrow, mimicking acute leukemia.

    Findings:

    • Smear studies and advanced techniques like immunocytology were essential for correct diagnosis.
    • Electron microscopy played a key role in differentiating the tumor type.
    • The patient achieved complete remission following CVADIC polychemotherapy.

    Implications:

    • Highlights the importance of advanced diagnostic modalities in challenging oncological cases.
    • Emphasizes the role of immunocytology and electron microscopy in identifying anaplastic tumors.
    • Demonstrates the efficacy of CVADIC chemotherapy in managing advanced rhabdomyosarcoma.
