Results of surgery with chemo-and radiotherapy for 28 patients with maxillary sinus carcinoma during the past 11 years were discussed in this paper. Local recurrent tumors occurred in 8 patients (28.6%) with extended tumors of the supra-and infralateral types. These tumors appeared in the orbital and lateral sites over the sinus. Secondary metastases to the regional lymph node and recurrent tumors after neck dissection occurred in 7 patients (25.0%) with the lateral types. They tended to appear in the lymph nodes of the superior internal jugulum, parotid gland and parapharynx. Twenty eight patients in this category had a 5-year cumulative survival rate of 58.6%. Twelve deaths occurred in the following categories: distant metastases 6, lymph node metastases 3, local recurrences 2 and other 1.
