A 23-year-old woman was referred to us for evaluation of persistent and recurrent facial and cheek pain and discomfort of 3 years' duration.

Computed tomography (CT) of the sinuses demonstrated prominent Haller cells impinging on the ethmoid infundibu-lum and the maxillary sinus outflow tracts (figure, A).
