摘要
Malignant melanoma originating from the sphenoid sinus is an extremely rare but aggressive tumor of the head and neck. A 57-year-old man had a 1 month history of headache, right trigeminal paresthesias, and upper lid ptosis. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a large mass in the right sphenoid sinus and an invasion of the right cavernous sinus and clivus. The patient underwent endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal surgery, and pathologically revealed malignant melanoma. One month after the operation, the patient was treated with radiation therapy. Unfortunately, the patient died of distant metastasis 2 years later. Due to its rarity, there is still no effective treatment strategy and no way to assess the progression of malignant melanoma.
