Sinonasal Neuroendocrine Carcinoma: 15 Years of Experience at a Single Institution

Abstract: Objectives Sinonasal neuroendocrine carcinomas (SNECs) are among the rarest paranasal sinus cancers. Consensus guidelines for therapy are difficult to develop due to limited data regarding the natural history and successful treatment of these tumors. This study presents 15 years of experience treating SNEC at a single institution and a review of the literature. Design Retrospective review. Setting Academic medical center in the United States. Participants Patients diagnosed with p… Show more

“…Sinonasal undifferentiated NEC is relevant because the only current factor in response to treatment and survival is histological grade; suspicion is limited to nonspecific symptoms even in advanced stages, and the majority of cases (75.0–84.6%) are diagnosed at stage IV,[ 11 , 17 , 23 ] when there is already invasion to the skull base, orbit, or brain. Its prevalence peaks between the 5 th and 6 th decades of life, with a slight male predisposition;[ 11 ] however, there are no identified risk factors.…”
