A clinical case of incorrect verification of the angiosarcoma of the ethmoidal labyrinth and frontal sinus in a 36-year-old man is presented. A feature of this case is the disregard of additional research methods without taking into account the unilateralism of the pathological process, which led to the wrong tactics of surgical treatment and the development of a relapse of the disease complicated by nasal liquorrhea. A thorough examination of the patient and an analysis of a series of computer tomograms of the paranasal sinuses suggested a diagnosis of malignancy. The patient underwent neoplasm removal with fistula plastic, and histological confirmation of the presumptive diagnosis was performed.
