Sinonasal carcinoma is a rare tumor, which is highly invasive and presents in an advanced stage often invading the skull base. Tumor arises from the mucosal lining of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses. Total surgical removal of the tumor when invading the skull base, along with radiotherapy, is the mainstay of treatment. Our patient underwent total excision of the tumor followed by radiotherapy.
