Retinoblastoma is the most common intraocular tumor of childhood. These tumors, though they respond to treatment, are prone to develop secondary malignancy, recurrence, and metastasis, which may present as sinonasal mass. We are presenting a rare case of metastatic retinoblastoma of sinonasal region in a 3-year-old male child. The mode of presentation and management of the case is presented along with a review of the literature. How to cite this article Jana T, Sengupta M, Das S, Saha AK, Saha S.
