Thanks for your query, i have gone through your query. The report says that it is a cancer involving the oral cavity and the maxillary sinus.
Consult a good oncologist in a cancer institute and get it treated. You might have to get a PET CT to rule out metastasis in other sites. The surgcal treatment could be maxillectomy with radiotherapy or chemotherapy.
I hope my answer will help you. Take care

Thanks for using Health Care Magic.

Read your query.

Studying your report ,it suggests the carcinoma (cancer ) of the maxillary sinus (maxillary antrum).


Visit a oncology hospital and get it evaluated for any spread or metastasis of the tissue .CT scan and further diagnostic aids will be needed.
Treatment will include the surgical removal followed by chemotherapy and radiotherapy depending the condition of the cancer.

Hope you have a successful treatment at the earliest.
Thanks and regards.
