Sino nasal malignant melanoma is a very aggressive and rare neoplasm of the head and neck region. Less than 2% of all mucosal melanomas originate from the sino-nasal region demanding a high index of suspicion to diagnose these tumours. The patients developing sino-nasal melanomas are usually in their sixties and seventies. These patients often present in an advanced stage due to its nature of rapid progression associated with non-specific symptoms. The present case report highlights a rare case of malignant melanoma of the maxillary sinus, involving orbit in a 56 years old male patient.
