- Abstract
The article describes the case of a man presented with frontal headache and double vision for two months. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain was performed and revealed a mass in left sphenoid sinus involving the left cavernous sinus. Findings showed that adenoid cystic carcinoma has higher epidermal growth factor receptor expression, but there is little consensus about the effectiveness of such therapy.
