TY - JOUR AB - A collision tumor refers to the coexistence of two diagnostically distinct tumors in a common anatomic space. Collision tumors are rare in the oral and maxillofacial region. The present study reported on the case of an 82‑year‑old female with a collision tumor in the maxillary sinus consisting of small cell carcinoma (SmCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Computed tomography (CT) imaging revealed a mass in the right maxillary sinus. The lesion exhibited heterogeneous low signal intensity (SI) on T1‑weighted imaging (T1WI), high SI on short T1 inversion recovery and heterogeneous solid enhancement on contrast‑enhanced T1WI. The histopathology result of a biopsy specimen confirmed SmCC. After the patient received a course of chemoradiotherapy, follow‑up CT revealed a residual tumor. In a second surgery, a remaining tumor and histopathology revealed SCC with no evidence of SmCC. The final diagnosis was a collision tumor made up of SCC and SmCC.
