| Treatment depends on 
              the type of cancer and where the cancer is found. 
               
                | 
                    If cancer is in the maxillary 
                      sinus, treatment will probably be surgery to remove the 
                      cancer. Radiation therapy is given before or after surgery.

                    If cancer is in the ethmoid 
                      sinus, treatment may be one of the following: 
                      
                         External beam radiation 
                          therapy. 2) Surgery followed by 
                          radiation therapy. |   
                | 
                    If cancer is in the sphenoid 
                      sinus, treatment will probably be radiation therapy. |   
                | 
                    If cancer is in the nasal 
                      cavity, treatment may be surgery, radiation therapy, or 
                      both. |   
                | 
                    If the cancer is an inverting 
                      papilloma, treatment will probably be surgery. If the cancer 
                      comes back after surgery, patients may receive radiation 
                      therapy.  |   
                | 
                    If the cancer is a melanoma 
                      or sarcoma, treatment will probably be surgery. For certain 
                      types of sarcoma, surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy 
                      may be given. |   
                | 
                    If the cancer is a midline 
                      granuloma, treatment will probably be radiation therapy. 
                       |   
                | 
                    If the cancer is in the 
                      nose (nasal vestibule), treatment may be surgery or radiation 
                      therapy. |  Information
