SMARCB1 (INI1)-deficient sinonasal carcinoma: a newly described entity
SMARCB1 (INI1)-deficient sinonasal carcinoma is a recently described variant of sinonasal tract carcinoma characterized by complete loss of nuclear SMARCB1 (INI1). It is very rare and currently underdiagnosed because of a lack of awareness. Before the description of SMARCB1 (INI1)-deficient sinonasal carcinomas, these tumors were probably misclassified as various malignant neoplasms. To date, o...
متن کاملSMARCB1(INI1)-deficient Sinonasal Basaloid Carcinoma
Poorly differentiated sinonasal carcinomas are a heterogenous group of aggressive neoplasms that encompasses squamous cell carcinoma including basaloid variant, lymphoepithelial carcinoma, sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma, and neuroendocrine-type small cell carcinoma. We herein describe 3 cases of a hitherto unreported variant combining features of basaloid carcinoma with variable interming...
متن کاملRadiology in Focus Optimum imaging for sinonasal malignancy
A combination of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is now established as the optimum assessment of sinonasal malignancy. CT and MRI are of particular value in assessing the skull base, orbit and pteryo-palatine and infratemporal fossae. Although MRI offers better differentiation of tumour from surrounding tissue and uid, coronal CT is still required for the demonstr...
متن کاملEndoscopy versus imaging: Analysis of surveillance methods in sinonasal malignancy.
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to assess the utility of imaging and endoscopy in posttreatment surveillance of sinonasal malignancies. METHODS We conducted a retrospective analysis of primary sinonasal malignancies diagnosed between 2000 and 2014. Posttreatment surveillance included nasal endoscopy and imaging (MRI, CT, and positron emission tomography [PET]/CT). Positive predictive...
متن کاملSinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma.
PURPOSE The purpose of this paper is to discuss the treatment and outcomes for patients with sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma. METHODS Review of the pertinent literature. RESULTS Most series contain a limited number of patients treated with various combinations of surgery, radiotherapy (RT), and chemotherapy. Follow-up periods for disease-free patients are sometimes relatively short. Th...
