Maxillary antrolith results from calcification of an endogenous or exogenous nidus withinthe maxillary sinus. It is an unusual entity compared with the rhinolith that often lodges in the nasal cavity. Presented herein is a study of a woman who experienced unilateral but non-specific rhinological symptoms. The diagnosis of maxillary antrolith was made based on detection of a high-density mass inside her right maxillary sinus by computerized sinus tomography. Endoscopic sinus surgery confirmed the presence of maxillary antrolith. The patient has been free of symptoms since surgery.
