Cholesterol granuloma of the maxillary antrum
Clinical Otolaryngology and Allied Sciences
|May 1, 1978
Abstract:
Five cases of cholesterol granuloma in the maxillary antrum are described. The lesion takes place in the mucosa. It seems likely that filtration and haemorrhage are the 2 main ways in which cholesterol is concentrated in certain tissues. The maxillary antrum provides a clear illustration of these 2 mechanisms at work.
