Abstract
This report presents a case of an exceptionally rare primary Natural Killer/T cell (NK/T) lymphoma of the right paranasal frontal and ethmoid sinuses in a patient treated previously for right side chronic sinusitis. It highlighted the importance of adequate tissue biopsy and patohistological examination in patients with chronic sinusitis or orbital cellulitis that fail to respond to traditional management.
