Primary carcinomas of the paranasal sinuses and especially of the frontal sinus are extremely rare. We present symptoms, results of radiological examinations and performed treatment. Because two kinds of neoplasm were found on histological examination: squamous cell carcinoma and inverted papilloma, we present characteristical features of inverted papilloma too (tendency for malignancy, destruction surrounding structures, metastases to lungs).
