Evaluation of Staging Systems for Cancer of the Nasal Vestibule

Abstract: Squamous cell carcinoma of the nasal vestibule is reported to account for less than one percent of all head and neck malignancies. It lacks a designated WHO ICD-O topography code, and multiple systems are available for the staging of this disease, which results in unwanted variability and the subsequent poor reliability of data. The aim of this study was to evaluate the currently available staging systems for cancer of the nasal vestibule, including the recently introduced classification by Bussu et al., which… Show more

“…for non-melanoma skin cancer of the head and neck (which is by definition inappropriate according to WHO, as the nasal vestibule is part of the nasal cavity) and the Wang classification [ 27 , 28 ]. Their individual advantages and disadvantages have already been discussed at length [ 31 ]. The Rome classification was proposed with the aim of being easier to use in clinical practice through focusing on anatomical landmarks and by allowing the integration of high-resolution imaging techniques.…”

“…Patients diagnosed with other histological subtypes (e.g., basal cell carcinoma, Merkel cell carcinoma, melanoma) were excluded. Part of this cohort has been described in a previous publication [ 31 ]. Each patient underwent comprehensive clinical assessment by a head and neck surgeon and radiation oncologist.…”

“…Moreover, the specific patterns of spread of NV cancers make the UICC/AJCC T classification criteria, in common with ethmoid and nasal cavity proper, inadequate for prognostic stratification, Wang's classification specifically designed for nose vestibule, and dating back to 1976, has been demonstrated to predict survival better [4]. Wang's criteria have been re-used for the novel Bussu T classification system, which has been, recently, preliminarily evaluated in a large multicentric series with very promising results [5].…”
