ABSTRACT

Osteogenic sarcoma is a rare malignant disease that may affect the maxilla. Swelling and pain are the most frequent presenting complaints.

Histologically, osteogenic sarcoma is defined as a malignant tumor characterized by the direct formation of bone or osteoid tissue by the tumor cells.

Treatment results are generally poor, and recurrance rates are generally high. Radical surgery offers the best five-year survival rate.

The authors experienced a case of osteogenic sarcoma originating from the left maxillary sinus of 12 years old female.
