Abstract
Olfactory neuroblastomas are uncommon malignancies that arise from olfactory receptor cells located high in the nasal cavity. Accurate diagnosis plays a crucial role in determining clinical results and guiding treatment decisions. Diagnosis can be a major challenge for pathologists, especially when dealing with tumours with poor differentiation. The discovery of several molecular and immunohistochemical markers would help to overcome classification difficulties. Due to the paucity of large-scale studies, standardisation of diagnosis, treatment and prediction of outcome remains a challenge. Surgical resection by endoscopic techniques with the addition of postoperative irradiation is the treatment of choice. In addition, it is advisable to consider elective neck irradiation to minimise the risk of nodal recurrence. Molecular characterisation will help not only to make more accurate diagnoses but also to identify specific molecular targets that can be used to develop personalised treatment options tailored to each patient. The present review aims to summarise the current state of knowledge on histopathological diagnosis, the molecular biology and management of this disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sinonasal neoplasms, whether benign and malignant, pose a significant challenge to clinicians and represent a model area for multidisciplinary collaboration in order to optimize patient care. The International Consensus Statement on Allergy and Rhinology: Sinonasal Tumors (ICSNT) aims to summarize the best available evidence and presents 48 thematic and histopathology-based topics spanning the field. METHODS In accordance with prior International Consensus Statement on Allergy and Rhinology documents, ICSNT assigned each topic as an Evidence-Based Review with Recommendations, Evidence-Based Review, and Literature Review based on the level of evidence. An international group of multidisciplinary author teams were assembled for the topic reviews using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses format, and completed sections underwent a thorough and iterative consensus-building process. The final document underwent rigorous synthesis and review prior to publication. RESULTS The ICSNT document consists of four major sections: general principles, benign neoplasms and lesions, malignant neoplasms, and quality of life and surveillance. It covers 48 conceptual and/or histopathology-based topics relevant to sinonasal neoplasms and masses. Topics with a high level of evidence provided specific recommendations, while other areas summarized the current state of evidence. A final section highlights research opportunities and future directions, contributing to advancing knowledge and community intervention. CONCLUSION As an embodiment of the multidisciplinary and collaborative model of care in sinonasal neoplasms and masses, ICSNT was designed as a comprehensive, international, and multidisciplinary collaborative endeavor. Its primary objective is to summarize the existing evidence in the field of sinonasal neoplasms and masses.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The purpose of this review is to summarize current evidence regarding the use of induction chemotherapy for a variety of histopathologies of sinonasal malignancy (SNMs) and to review the potential adverse effects of cytotoxic agents. RECENT FINDINGS Historically, patients with locally advanced SNMs have had relatively poor prognoses and high morbidity from treatment. The available retrospective data suggests that induction chemotherapy may improve outcomes for patients with sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma (SNUC), neuroendocrine carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma (SSCC), and esthesioneuroblastoma. For SNUC and SSCC, response or nonresponse to induction chemotherapy may prognosticate outcomes and for SNUC specifically, drive selection of definitive therapy. In chemosensitive pathologies, induction chemotherapy appears to improve organ preservation. SUMMARY Induction chemotherapy may improve functional and oncologic outcomes for patients with SNMs. Because of the rarity of these pathologies, the available data is primarily retrospective. Future randomized, prospective studies should be performed to further optimize and elucidate the role of induction chemotherapy for SNMs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Medical three dimensional (3D) printing is performed for neurosurgical and otolaryngologic conditions, but without evidence-based guidance on clinical appropriateness. A writing group composed of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) Special Interest Group on 3D Printing (SIG) provides appropriateness recommendations for neurologic 3D printing conditions. METHODS A structured literature search was conducted to identify all relevant articles using 3D printing technology associated with neurologic and otolaryngologic conditions. Each study was vetted by the authors and strength of evidence was assessed according to published guidelines. RESULTS Evidence-based recommendations for when 3D printing is appropriate are provided for diseases of the calvaria and skull base, brain tumors and cerebrovascular disease. Recommendations are provided in accordance with strength of evidence of publications corresponding to each neurologic condition combined with expert opinion from members of the 3D printing SIG. CONCLUSIONS This consensus guidance document, created by the members of the 3D printing SIG, provides a reference for clinical standards of 3D printing for neurologic conditions.

Abstract
Olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB) is a rare neoplasm originating from the olfactory neuroepithelium representing 3-6% of tumors of the sinonasal tract. ONB require multi-disciplinary care. Historically, the gold standard surgical procedure for ONB has been open craniofacial resection. In the last years, endoscopic endonasal approaches have been largely introduced with lower complication rates, shorter hospital stay, and similar clinical outcome. Radiotherapy plays an important role in the management of ONB, however there are not generally accepted recommendations for its application. Although there is agreement that multimodal therapy is needed, the optimal use of chemotherapy is still unknown. The rarity of the disease, makes difficult to draw definitive conclusions about the role of systemic treatment in induction and concomitant setting.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Esthesioneuroblastoma and sinonasal neuroendocrine carcinoma (SNEC) are the most common histological subtypes of non-squamous Sinonasal Tumors. A multidisciplinary approach is preferred for locally advanced unresectable esthesioneuroblastoma and SNEC. METHODS From June 2010 to October 2021, 59 patients with esthesioneuroblastoma and SNEC received NACT. NACT consists of 2-3 cycles of Etoposide-Platinum based chemotherapy. Depending upon response and performance status, subsequent therapy was planned. SPSS descriptive statistics were performed for analysis. Kaplan Meir methods were used for the estimation of Progression Free Survival (PFS) and Overall Survival (OS). RESULTS 45 (76.3 %) Esthesioneuroblastoma and 14 (23.7 %) SNEC patients received NACT. The median age of the population was 45 years (range 20-81 years). The majority of patients received 2-3 cycles of Platinum (Cisplatin or Carboplatin) + Etoposide as NACT. 28 patients (47.5%) underwent surgery and 20 patients (33.9%) received definitive chemoradiotherapy after NACT. The most common grade 3 or above adverse events were anemia (13.6%), neutropenia (27.1), and hyponatremia (45.8%). At the time of analysis, the median PFS was 56 months (95% CI 31 months to 77 months), and the median OS was 70 months (95% CI 56 months to 86 months). The most common late toxicities noticed were metabolic syndrome (42.4%), hyperglycemia (39%), nasal bleeding (33.9%), hypertension (17%), dyslipidemia (8.5%), and hypothyroidism (5.1%). CONCLUSION The study shows that NACT is safe, and can be easily delivered without any life-threatening toxicities, with a favorable response and improved survival in this subset of patients.

Abstract
Esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) is a rare sinonasal malignancy that is typically managed with a combination of surgical resection, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Data used to guide therapeutic decision making are scant and typically obtained from small retrospective series due to the relative infrequency of the diagnosis. Here, we report our own institutional experience in the management of patients with ENB to help compliment these prior single institutional reports. Records from patients receiving treatment for ENB at the University of Minnesota Medical Center were obtained from 1994 to 2019. A total of 17 patients were identified from our retrospective review. Kadish stage at initial presentation was A in 2 (12%), B in 5 (29%), C in 9 (53%) and D in 1 (6%). All patients underwent surgical resection. Adjuvant radiotherapy was utilized in 12 (71%) patients with concurrent chemotherapy administered in 3 (18%) patients. One patient received neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy followed by surgical resection. Four patients developed recurrent disease with locoregional failure presenting as the most common site of initial relapse within our study population. Isolated local recurrence occurred in 2 patients, one patient developed combined local and regional failure, while another had combined regional and distant failure with osseous metastases. Recurrent disease was managed by either combined salvage surgery and radiotherapy (RT) or RT alone. Three of the 4 patients who developed recurrence eventually succumbed to their disease. Estimates for 5-year DFS and OS were 65% and 90%, respectively, for the entire cohort.

Abstract
Objective Socioeconomic and other demographic factors are associated with outcomes in head and neck cancer. This study uses a national cancer database to explore how patient race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status (SES) are associated with esthesioneuroblastoma outcomes, including 5-year disease-specific survival (DSS), conditional DSS, stage at diagnosis, and treatment. Study Design Retrospective cohort analysis. Setting Patients with esthesioneuroblastomas between 1973 and 2015 from the SEER registry (Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results). Methods The National Cancer Institute Yost Index, a census tract–level composite score composed of 7 parameters, was used to categorize the SES of patients. Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox regression were conducted to assess DSS. Conditional DSS was calculated per estimates from simplified Cox models. Logistic regression was conducted to identify risk factors for advanced cancer stage at diagnosis and the likelihood of receiving multimodal therapy. Results Complete data were included for 561 patients. DSS was significantly associated with SES (log-rank, P < .01) but not race. According to Cox regression, DSS was worse for the lowest SES tertile vs the highest (hazard ratio, 1.70 [95% CI, 1.05-2.75]; P = .03). Patients of the lowest SES tertile exhibited an increased risk of advanced cancer stage at diagnosis as compared with the highest SES tertile (odds ratio, 1.84 [95% CI, 1.06-3.30]; P = .035). Black patients (odds ratio, 0.44 [95% CI, 0.24-0.84]; P = .011) were less likely than other patients to receive multimodal therapy. SES alone was not associated with receiving multimodal therapy. Conclusion SES is significantly associated with DSS and conditional DSS for patients with esthesioneuroblastomas. Inequalities in access to care and treatment likely contribute to these disparities.

Abstract
Radiation-induced olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB) is an uncommon neoplasm that is generally associated with a poor prognosis. We experienced an unusual case of ONB in a patient who had received previous radiation therapy for extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma 15 years previously. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a patient with radiation-induced ONB obtaining a complete response (CR) with radical re-irradiation alone. The purpose of this report is to discuss therapeutic strategies for radiation-induced ONB. We report an unusual case of ONB suspected to be a radiation-induced neoplasm in a 33-year-old female who had received 30 Gy of irradiation for extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type (NTCL) 15 years earlier. In this case, the patient presented with nasal obstruction and frequent epistaxis. The patient was diagnosed with ONB based on left nasal biopsy findings. The surrounding normal tissues tolerance of nasal ONB radiation had to be limited, because the previously radiated NTCL was located adjacent to critical organs. We performed intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), which could offer precise irradiation (60 Gy in 2 Gy daily fractions) while sparing critical tissues. The present case was treated with radiation therapy alone, whereas previously reported cases were treated with a combination of chemotherapy and radiation therapy. We treated radiation-induced OBN successfully with radical re-irradiation using IMRT alone and the patient has had no recurrence for 3 years.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB) is a rare malignant tumor arising in the upper nasal cleft. Rarely, ONB may originate in ectopic sites and the impact of this on prognosis and treatment strategies continues to be debated. METHODS A retrospective analysis was undertaken of patients with ectopic ONB treated between 2000 and 2020 in a tertiary-care referral center for skull base tumors. Three patients were included in this analysis: a 37-year-old woman with ONB arising from the bulla ethmoidalis; a 28-year-old man with inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone caused by a maxillary sinus ONB; and a 41-year-old man with lacrimal sac ONB. Preoperative workup, surgical approach, adjuvant treatments and postoperative surveillance were analyzed. Relevant literature published between 2000 and January 2021 was fully reviewed to investigate oncologic outcomes and delineate the standard of care for such rare tumors. RESULTS All patients were treated via endoscopic endonasal resection with radical intent, followed by adjuvant treatments when required. No recurrences of disease were observed after a mean follow-up time of 32 months (range, 12-60 months). Data emerging from the literature suggest that a multidisciplinary treatment approach, including free-margins surgical resection followed by adjuvant radiotherapy or radiochemotherapy, is recommended. Olfactory bulb and dura preservation should be attempted whenever feasible. CONCLUSIONS Endoscopic endonasal surgery should be preferred, when possible, to achieve complete excision to minimize patients' morbidity. The ectopic site of origin affects prognosis and should be considered when selecting the appropriate multimodal treatment strategy.

Abstract
Small round blue cell tumors (SRBCTs) are a heterogeneous group of malignant neoplasms that can be challenging to distinguish on fine-needle aspiration (FNA) cytology. Ancillary tests as well as clinico-radiological correlation are often required to make an accurate diagnosis. FNA is a low-cost, low-infrastructure test, making it a coveted diagnostic tool, especially in low-resource settings. Olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB) is a rare SRBCT encountered in both pediatric and adult patients. Awareness of the cytomorphologic and immunocytochemical features of ONB is important in the workup of a SRBCT. This case report describes the primary diagnosis of metastatic ONB on FNA cytology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is no consensus about the optimal management of the neck in clinically node negative esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB). The aim of this study is to assess the impact of elective neck irradiation (ENI) in terms of regional disease control and survival. METHODS The study was performed according to the PRISMA guidelines searching on Scopus, PubMed/MEDLINE, and Google Scholar databases. The primary outcome was the regional recurrence rate (RRR), that was reported as odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). Secondary outcomes were the overall survival (OS), and the distant-metastases free survival (DMFS), that were reported as logarithm of the hazard ratios (logHRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS A total of 489 clinically node negative patients were included from 9 retrospective studies. ENI significantly reduced the risk of regional recurrence compared to no treatment. No difference was measured between ENI and observation, according to both OS and DMFS. No stratified analysis could be performed based on Kadish stage and Hyams grade. CONCLUSIONS ENI should be recommended to improve the regional disease control. No advantage was measured in terms of survival or distant metastases with a low quality of evidence. Further prospective studies should be designed to understand if ENI could be avoided in early stage and low-grade tumors.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Sinonasal cavity is an important subsite in head and neck tumors. There are a myriad of malignancies that present within this area. Adequate staging for treatment planning requires multimodality evaluation. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) forms an important component in the evaluation of sinonasal tumors. We sought to review the most common sinonasal tumors, including sinonasal anatomy, clinical features, and common imaging features. A literature review was performed to evaluate common sinonasal tumors. Owing to the different tissue types within the sinonasal cavity, there are multiple different tumor pathologies within the sinonasal compartment. Most present in adults although some present in the young. Many of these tumor types have imaging overlaps, although some have a characteristic appearance. MRI can aid in soft tissue delineation, evaluation of multicompartmental extension, intracranial spread, and perineural spread. Sinonasal tumors are a heterogeneous group for which soft tissue delineation via MRI forms an important role in ensuring adequate treatment planning to improve outcomes, decreasing morbidity, and improve functional outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND For olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB), the combination of surgical tumor resection and radiation therapy (RT) has been considered the "gold standard" in treatment protocols intended to cure. OBJECTIVE To summarize evidence on the treatment of ONB using surgery alone. METHODS A retrospective institutional case series, a systematic review of the literature, and an individual patient data (IPD) meta-analysis on only surgically treated ONB patients. RESULTS At our institution, a total of 10 patients were treated through surgery alone and remained alive and free of disease at last follow-up. The IPD meta-analysis on 128 patients revealed a disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) of 67.7% and 75.4% at 5 years and 57.1% and 71.9% at 10 years, respectively. Univariate analysis showed that Kadish stage C/D and Hyams grading III//IV significantly affected OS (P = 0.000 and P = 0.000) and DFS (P = 0.000 and P = 0.002). For low-risk patients, the DFS was 80.6% at 5 years and 67.8% at 10 years, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Surgery alone is an equivalent alternative to combined treatment in carefully selected low-risk ONB patients with better outcome measures than previously reported.

Abstract
Purpose Esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) is a type of rare malignant neoplasm of the sinonasal cavity. Optimal treatment for ENB is still controversial. A retrospective study was conducted to identify the clinical outcome and optimal treatment for ENB in the era of intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). Patients and Methods Between December 2006 and August 2018, 37 patients with ENB without distant metastasis who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by chemoradiotherapy (C+RC) or surgery followed by radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy (S+R/RC) were retrospectively reviewed at our center. Results The median follow-up period was 63.7 months (range, 13.2-111.5 months). Five-year overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), locoregional relapse-free survival (LRFS), and distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) were similar between treatment arms (P values > 0.05). With a multivariate analysis, a Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) of ≤80 was a prognostic factor for poor five-year OS. A KPS of ≤80 and Kadish class C-D tumors were prognostic factors for poor PFS. A KPS of ≤80 was a prognostic factor for poor LRFS. When KPS was ≤80 and tumors were Kadish class C-D, T3-4 and N1 were prognostic factors for poor DMFS. Subgroup analyses also demonstrated that the two treatment arms exhibited similar trends for OS, PFS, LRFS, and DMFS, excluding patients with N1 or Kadish class A-B tumors (P values > 0.05). Conclusion In the era of IMRT, S+R/RC failed to improve the outcomes of patients with ENB. C+RC may be a feasible treatment option for patients with ENB.

Abstract
Background: Tumors originating from the craniofacial region usually present in a locally advanced stage with frequent involvement of adjacent sites and have a strong tendency for local recurrence in the absence of adjuvant therapy, even when the original surgical resection was presumed to be radical. In the past decades, several advances in the radiological diagnosis and treatment of craniofacial malignancies have been introduced. There are, however, no randomized trials that define the optimal multimodal treatment of these tumors because of their rarity as well as heterogeneity in both histology and site of origin. The aim of this study was to conduct a critical review of the role of adjuvant therapy in the treatment of craniofacial malignancy. Method: We conducted a critical review of the past and contemporary literature available, focusing on adjuvant oncological treatments of the most common craniofacial malignancies. Results: Preoperative radiotherapy can have a documented role in the treatment of olfactory neuroblastoma and soft tissue sarcoma, while preoperative chemotherapy can be advocated in the treatment of sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma, neuroendocrine carcinoma, olfactory neuroblastoma, and craniofacial sarcoma (both soft-tissue and high-grade osteosarcoma). Postoperative radiotherapy has a well-established role in the treatment of most craniofacial malignancies. The role of postoperative chemotherapy is unclear in most histologies, but is commonly used during the treatment of well-selected cases of paranasal sinus carcinoma, olfactory neuroblastoma, mucosal melanoma, soft tissue sarcoma and high-grade craniofacial osteosarcoma. Discussion: Alongside developments in surgery, there have also been improvements in diagnostics, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy. Implementation of novel radiation techniques allows delivery of higher radiation doses while minimizing irradiation-related morbidity. Better understanding of tumor biology allows the construction of more complex treatment strategies, incorporating adjuvant chemotherapy either pre- or postoperatively. In the era of personalized targeted therapy, rapid strides are being made to identify specific tumor-targets for use of novel biologic agents, with the potential to change current management paradigms.

Abstract
Purpose Olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB) is a rare head and neck cancer believed to be originated from neural crest cells of the olfactory membrane located in the roof of the nasal fossa. This study evaluates clinical outcomes and failure patterns in ONB patients of those patients treated with surgical resection at a high-volume tertiary cancer center. Methods and Materials Thirty-nine ONB patients who underwent surgical resection at our institution from 1996 to 2017 were retrospectively identified. Univariate, multivariate, and survival analysis were calculated using Cox regression analysis and Kaplan-Meier log-rank. Results Median follow-up time was 59 months (range: 5.2-236 months). The median overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) for the entire cohort were 15 and 7.6 years, respectively. The 5-year cumulative OS and DFS were 83 and 72%, respectively. The 5-year OS for low Hyams grade (LHG) versus high Hyams grade (HHG) was 95 versus 61% ( p = 0.041). LHG was found in 66% of the early Kadish stage patients compared with 28% in the advanced Kadish stage patients ( p = 0.057). On multivariate analysis, HHG and positive node status predicted for worse OS and only HHG predicted for worse DFS. Of note, five patients (all Kadish stage A) who received surgical resection alone had no observed deaths or recurrences with a median follow-up of 44 months (range: 5-235 months). Conclusion In this retrospective cohort, patients with positive nodes or HHG have significantly worse clinical outcomes. Future studies should explore treatment intensification for HHG or positive nodes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Many controversies exist in the diagnosis and management of this aggressively malignant condition, mainly because of limited literature and lack of randomized control trials, resulting in nonstandardized treatment methods. We performed a comprehensive review of the literature to identify management approach and treatment options for esthesioneuroblastoma. METHODS An extensive review of the published literature was conducted in PubMed, OVID Medline, and EMBASE journals for studies of esthesioneuroblastoma. Terms for search included esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) and olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB). No date restrictions were used. RESULTS The search yielded 3876 related articles. Cross-checking of articles led to exclusion of duplicate articles. The remaining 1170 articles were screened for their full text and English language availability. Of 609 full-text articles available, animal studies, irrelevant articles, and studies with mixed/confusing data were excluded. We finalized 149 articles pertaining to the topic, including 119 original research articles, 3 book chapters, 11 reviews, 9 case reports, and 7 case series. CONCLUSIONS Surgical resection followed by radiotherapy is the standard for treatment for higher-grade lesions. The endoscopic endonasal approach is gaining further recognition with more favorable outcomes and better survival than for open surgery. Postoperative radiotherapy is associated with the highest overall survival and shows benefit for patients with higher-stage disease and those who receive chemotherapy. Recurrence rates after treatment vary drastically in the literature and, therefore, prolonged follow-up with repeated imaging is recommended. Lifelong surveillance is recommended because of late recurrences associated with this tumor.

Abstract
Olfactory neuroblastoma (ON) is a rare tumour of the olfactory neuroepithelium that is characterized by a pattern of slow growth and local recurrences. Combination of surgery and radiotherapy, with or without chemotherapy, is considered to be the standard of care for primary site disease. Recent literature supports the view that endoscopic resection followed by adjuvant radiotherapy correlates with better outcome. In this short communication, we present a case report of olfactory neuroblastoma arising in the right nasal sinus in a 34-year-old male. This patient was treated with endoscopic resection and external beam radiotherapy to the right nasal sinus with intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) technique. After 2 years follow-up, the patient is free of tumour without any late effect related to therapies. We believe that, in such patients, a treatment strategy including endoscopic resection followed by adjuvant radiotherapy may be effective and feasible and should be considered the gold standard of care.

Abstract
The management of sinonasal cancer is a challenge due to its low occurrence and anatomical and significant diversity of histological types. The therapeutic modality used should be tailored individually according to the histology, tumour stage, molecular profile and previous treatments. The clinical management of sinonasal cancer has improved greatly owing to developments in endoscopic surgery and precision radiotherapy. Complete surgical resection is the mainstay of sinonasal malignancies' management but multimodality therapy is associated with improved outcomes in certain histologies. The recognition of various histological types with biological behaviours more suitable for non-surgical modalities has allowed treatment protocols to become more tailored to the disease. In this review we aim to describe and to summarise the current data guiding the management of sinonasal cancer with emphasis on phenotypic variation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine if the laterality of primary tumors in patients with olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB) influenced the pattern and development of neck disease. METHODS Using a retrospective cohort study design from 1994 to 2015, the primary tumors of patients who either presented with or developed neck disease were volumetrically analyzed using iPlan software (version 3.0.0, BrainLAB, Feldkirchen, Germany) by two independent observers. Agreement of volume-derived sidedness was assessed with a kappa statistic, whereas agreement in volume-derived degree of tumor laterality was evaluated with an intraclass correlation coefficient. A one-sample t test was used to assess the difference in dominant percentage between the two observers. RESULTS Sixty-one patients with histological diagnosis and treatment of ONB at our institution were identified. Twenty-four patients exhibited neck involvement, 13 of whom could be volumetrically analyzed. Tumors that were greater than 75% eccentric to one side all exhibited contralateral disease, whereas the majority of unilateral neck disease was associated with relatively midline masses. Within the entire cohort, ipsilateral level 2 lymph nodes displayed the highest involvement (83%, 20 of 24), followed by ipsilateral level 1 (54%, 13 of 24), contralateral level 2 (46%, 11 of 24), contralateral level 1 (21%, 5 of 24), and ipsilateral level 3 (21%, 5 of 24). CONCLUSION Ipsilateral neck involvement frequently was observed; however, the degree of ONB primary site laterality did not appear to have implications on the development of contralateral neck disease. Therefore, when considering elective therapy to the neck, ONB laterality should not be used to justify unilateral neck treatment. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 4. Laryngoscope, 128:864-870, 2018.

Abstract
Objective We aimed to compare major complication rates in patients undergoing open versus endoscopic resection of olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB) and to determine the prognostic utility of the Kadish staging and Hyams grading systems with respect to progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Methods It is a retrospective review of experience in treating ONB at a single tertiary care hospital from 1987 through 2015. Major complications were defined as cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak, meningitis, osteomyelitis, tracheostomy, and severe neurologic injury. Results Forty-one patients were included. An open approach was used in 34 (83%), endoscopic in 6 (15%), and combined in 1 (2%) case. Rates of major complications by surgical approach were 17% after endoscopic versus 31% after open ( p = 0.65). There was no significant difference in PFS or OS based on Kadish B versus C (PFS, p = 0.28; OS, p = 0.11) or Hyams grade 1 and 2 versus Hyams grade 3 and 4 (PFS, p = 0.53; OS, p = 0.38). Conclusions There was no significant difference in major complications between open and endoscopic approaches for the treatment of ONB. Patient stratification using the Kadish staging and Hyams grading systems did not show significant differences in PFS or OS. Further research is needed to determine if a different staging system would better predict patient outcomes.

Abstract
The American College of Radiology (ACR) Appropriateness Criteria are evidence-based guidelines for specific clinical conditions that are reviewed annually by a multidisciplinary expert panel. The guideline development and revision include an extensive analysis of current medical literature from peer-reviewed journals and the application of well-established methodologies (RAND/UCLA Appropriateness Method and Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation or GRADE) to rate the appropriateness of imaging and treatment procedures for specific clinical scenarios. In those instances where evidence is lacking or equivocal, expert opinion may supplement the available evidence to recommend imaging or treatment. Here, we present the Appropriateness Criteria for cancers arising in the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses (maxillary, sphenoid, and ethmoid sinuses). This includes clinical presentation, prognostic factors, principles of management, and treatment outcomes. Controversies regarding management of cervical lymph nodes are discussed. Rare and unusual nasal cavity cancers, such as esthesioneuroblastoma and sinonasal undifferentiated carcinomas, are included. © 2016 American College of Radiology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Olfactory neuroblastoma is a rare sinonasal malignancy, with poorly defined treatment protocols. Management at a tertiary centre was retrospectively evaluated to inform future treatment and follow up. METHODS Cases treated with curative intent (2000-2014) were included. Data were collected, and overall and disease-free survival rates were calculated. RESULTS Eleven cases were identified, with a median follow up of 87 months. One patient was Kadish stage A, one was stage B, eight were stage C and one was stage D. The latter patient underwent chemoradiotherapy alone. The remaining patients proceeded to: endoscopic-assisted wide local excision (n = 2), anterior craniofacial resection (n = 4) or endoscopic craniofacial resection (n = 4). No patients had primary nodal disease or elective neck treatment. One patient had neoadjuvant chemoradiation. Six patients had post-operative radiotherapy; three received adjuvant chemotherapy. Two patients had late cervical node failure, and proceeded to neck dissection and post-operative radiotherapy. Two patients had late local recurrence. Ten-year overall and disease-free survival rates were 68.2 and 46.7 per cent, respectively. CONCLUSION Longer-term follow up is supported given the incidence of late regional and local recurrence. Prophylactic treatment of cervical nodes in locally advanced disease is an area for further investigation.

Abstract
Objectives Sinonasal cancers with neuroendocrine features share similar clinical, radiological, and histopathological features; however, these tumors often exhibit varying degrees of aggressive behavior presenting significant treatment challenges. The objective of this study was to report our experience with these rare malignancies and to present a review of current literature. Methods Following institutional review board approval, the records of all patients with biopsy-proven sinonasal malignancies over a 5-year period were reviewed. Results The study included 14 patients with olfactory neuroblastomas (ONBs), 7 patients with sinonasal undifferentiated carcinomas (SNUC), and 2 patients with sinonasal neuroendocrine carcinomas (SNEC). Histopathologic markers aided in final diagnosis, but showed variable specificity. In patients with sufficient follow-up, the 2-year disease-free survival rate was 81% (9/11) for ONB and 75% (3/4) for SNUC. Three patients developed a regional or distant recurrence (two with ONBs and one with SNUC). Two patients, one with SNEC and one with ONB, succumbed to brain radionecrosis related to proton radiation therapy. Conclusions Overlapping clinical and histopathological features in poorly differentiated sinonasal cancers with neuroendocrine features continue to present a diagnostic challenge. Individualized assessment and treatment strategies can improve the accuracy of the initial assessment and the treatment outcomes.

Abstract
The advances in endoscopy have revolutionized the management of sinonasal and skull base lesions. Many complex cancers that traditionally required open approaches are now amenable to purely endoscopic endonasal resection, providing less invasive surgery with lower morbidity but with comparable oncologic outcomes in terms of survival rates. This article discusses the current evidence for the multimodal management of sinonasal and anterior skull base cancers focusing on the different treatment protocols driven by histologic subtypes.

Abstract
Neuroectodermal tumour has a wide range of biological activity that ranges from an indolent course to local recurrence and rapid widespread metastasis. We describe, herewith, 2 patients with Esthesioneuroblastomas (ENB) who had varied atypical clinical presentation. The first case presented with Intracranial Pressure (ICP) headache and acute visual deterioration with radiology revealing an extra axial lesion with extension into the nasal cavity while the second case presented with nasal congestion and progressive headache of long duration. We review the unusual characteristics that may uncommonly occur in ENBs and elaborate regarding which of these must be considered when evaluating patients with this malignancy.

Abstract
Sinonasal neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) are rare, aggressive neoplasms with a high recurrence potential. There are no robust protocols for the management of these tumours. An 81-year-old man presented with an incidental sinonasal mass visualised on CT scan of head. Over the next few weeks he developed new onset, progressively worsening headache, right eye ptosis and restricted extraocular movements. Imaging confirmed a rapidly enlarging tumour involving the right nasal cavity and the orbit. Biopsy showed a large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the right ethmoidal sinus. The patient was treated with concurrent cisplatin chemotherapy and radiation. Repeat imaging showed decrease in tumour volume. The patient continues to do well and follows up regularly with our oncology service. Current protocols comprising chemotherapy after radiation are based on limited studies. A regimen involving concurrent chemoradiation also appears to aid in tumour volume reduction. Additional studies are required to formulate robust clinical protocols for management of sinonasal NETs.

Abstract
PURPOSE Olfactory neuroblastoma or esthesioneuroblastoma is a rare entity among head and neck neoplasms. In this paper, we report the experience of our institution and compare it with a comprehensive review of the literature. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively analysed clinical and treatment data of patients referred to the Lyon Sud University Hospital (France) for histologically proven olfactive esthesioneuroblastoma. RESULTS Ten patients treated between 1993 and 2015 have been analysed. Disease stage at diagnosis, according to the Kadish staging system, was C in 90% of cases. Median follow-up was 136 months. Ten-year overall survival was 90%. Five- and ten-year progression-free survival were 70% and 50%. Nine patients (90%) underwent surgical resection first. Seven of the nine patients who underwent resection (77%) received adjuvant three-dimensional (3D)-conformal radiotherapy (n=7), intensity-modulated radiotherapy (n=1), or volumetric arctherapy (n=1). The mean dose to the tumour volume was 61Gy. None of the patients received elective nodal irradiation. Two patients received concurrent chemotherapy. Five patients (50%) presented with disease recurrence, which was local (n=1), nodal (n=2) and cerebral (n=2). CONCLUSION Our results are consistent with the literature. Because of the lack of prospective study and the low number of cases in the literature, each institution's experience is of the utmost important to improve standardised management of these tumours.

Abstract
Objective Esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) is a rare tumor of the olfactory epithelium. The objective of this study was to evaluate treatment modalities including surgery, IMRT, and chemotherapy and patient outcomes. Patients and Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on a total of 21 patients. Therapy included craniofacial resection (CFR), radiotherapy, chemotherapy, or a combination of these methods. Results The median follow-up period was 47 months. Surgery was performed in 90.4% of cases; radiotherapy was performed adjuvantly in 15 (72.7%) patients. Surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy were administered to 7 (33.3%) patients. Eight (38.3%) patients had local recurrence. The 5-year crude overall survival was 71.4% and actuarial 5-year overall survival was 58% with confidence interval (CI, 25 and 81, respectively). The 5-year crude disease-free survival rate was 59% and the 5-year actuarial disease-free survival rate was 62% (CI, 28 and 83, respectively). Conclusion Multidisciplinary therapy of ENB should be considered, especially for Kadish C and high-grade lesions. Craniofacial resection (CFR), Intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), and chemotherapy should be investigated in a multi-institution trial of ENB. © 2007 American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery Foundation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) is a rare, poorly characterized, intranasal cancer arising from olfactory neuroepithelium. METHODS This case report reviews the underlying pathophysiology, clinical presentation, and diagnosis of primary ENB and parotid metastases. RESULTS We present the case of a 43-year-old man who was referred to our practice with radiographically and biopsy confirmed ENB. After neoadjuvant chemotherapy, radiation, and open surgical resection, he returned to the clinic 30 months postoperatively with a right parotid mass, which was found to be a recurrence of his primary cancer. A parotidectomy was performed; however, he returned 10 months later with a new left parotid mass. Subsequent imaging and biopsy confirmed recurrence of ENB and a second parotidectomy was performed. CONCLUSION This case illustrates that delayed metastases in the setting of ENB are not limited to the cervical lymph nodes and, in rare instances, may involve the parotid glands. Surveillance should include the parotid lymph node basin with a high clinical index of suspicion in the setting of parotid lymphadenopathy after primary surgical therapy. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Objective To describe the incidence and determinants of survival of patients with sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma (SNUC) from 1973 to 2011 using the SEER database (Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results), with consideration of tumor stage based on the Kadish system. Study Design Retrospective database analysis. Setting Academic medical center. Subjects and Methods The SEER registry was utilized to calculate survival trends for 328 patients with SNUC between 1973 and 2011. Patient data were then analyzed with respect to histopathology, age, sex, race, subsite, modified Kadish stage, tumor size, and treatments rendered. Results The cohort was composed of 61.9% males with median age of 60 years. The median overall survival (OS) was 1.9 years. Most tumors presented in the nasal cavity, maxillary sinus, and ethmoid sinus (29.3%, 27.4%, 21%, respectively); 43.7% of patients received both surgical and radiation therapy. OS at 2, 5, and 10 years was 43%, 30%, and 25%, respectively. On univariate analysis, age, Kadish stage, and tumor size were associated with worse OS and disease-specific survival (DSS), while surgery and radiation therapy were associated with improved OS and DSS (all P < .05). On multivariate analysis, radiation therapy and lower Kadish stage were associated with improved OS and DSS, while younger age was additionally associated with improved OS (all P < .05). Conclusion SNUC is a rare but aggressive sinonasal malignancy. Tumor stage as determined by the Kadish system is associated with worse survival, with radiation therapy appearing to play a key role in therapeutic management.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Sinonasal tumors are chemotherapy responsive which frequently present in advanced stages making NACT a promising option for improving resection and local control in borderline resectable and locally advanced tumours. Here we reviewed the results of 25 such cases treated with NACT. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sinonasal tumor patients treated with NACT were selected for this analysis. These patients received NACT with platinum and etoposide for 2 cycles. Patients who responded and were amenable for gross total resection underwent surgical resection and adjuvant CTRT. Those who responded but were not amenable for resection received radical CTRT. Patients who progressed on NACT received either radical CTRT or palliative radiotherapy. RESULTS The median age of the cohort was 42 years (IQR 37-47 years). Grades 3-4 toxicity with NACT were seen in 19 patients (76%). The response rate to NACT was 80%. Post-NACT surgery was done in 12 (48%) patients and radical chemoradiation in 9 (36%) patients. The 2-year progression free survival and overall survival were 75% and 78.5%, respectively. CONCLUSION NACT in sinonasal tumours has a response rate of 80%. The protocol of NACT followed by local treatment is associated with improvement in outcomes as compared to our historical cohort.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Olfactory neuroblastoma and the management of neck disease has posed considerable challenges to the treating physician. The aims of the study were to determine the incidence and factors influencing neck disease and to identify at-risk patients with cervical node-negative disease at presentation. STUDY DESIGN Multicenter case series with retrospective chart review. SETTING AND SUBJECTS In sum, 113 patients with a histopathologic diagnosis of olfactory neuroblastoma across 6 tertiary hospitals in Australia and the United States. METHODS Treatment modalities for the primary site and neck included surgery, radiotherapy, and combined therapy. Treatment outcomes were measured in relation to date of primary treatment, and long-term follow-up was recorded. Disease-free survival was calculated as time for patients to develop delayed neck disease following primary treatment. RESULTS A total of 113 patients (46 females, 49.7 ± 13.2 years) were identified with a median follow-up of 41.5 months (interquartile range, 58.2); 7.1% of patients presented with primary neck disease, while 8.8% of patients presented with delayed neck disease. Neck disease was present in patients with Hyams grade II (22.2%), III (55.6%), and IV (22.2%) lesions (χ(2) = 5.66, P = .13). Histologic grade was higher in patients with primary neck disease (χ(2) = 16.22, P = .001). Positive surgical margins were associated with a higher risk of delayed neck disease as compared with clear surgical margin (17.9% vs 5%, P = .034). CONCLUSION Neck metastasis is an important clinical consideration for olfactory neuroblastoma at presentation and in surveillance. Primary treatment of the neck could be considered in select patients. Long-term surveillance of the neck and primary site is essential.

Abstract
PURPOSE Although adjuvant radiation to the tumor bed has been reported to improve the clinic outcomes of esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) patients, the role of elective neck irradiation (ENI) in clinically node-negative (N0) patients remains controversial. Here, we evaluated the effects of ENI on neck nodal relapse risk in ENB patients treated with radiation therapy as a component of multimodality treatment. METHODS AND MATERIALS Seventy-one N0 ENB patients irradiated at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center between 1970 and 2013 were identified. ENI was performed on 22 of these patients (31%). Survival analysis was performed with focus on comparative outcomes of those patients who did and did not receive ENI. RESULTS The median follow-up time for our cohort is 80.8 months (range, 6-350 months). Among N0 patients, 13 (18.3%) developed neck nodal relapses, with a median time to progression of 62.5 months. None of these 13 patients received prophylactic neck irradiation. ENI was associated with significantly improved regional nodal control at 5 years (regional control rate of 100% for ENI vs 82%, P < .001), but not overall survival or disease-free survival. Eleven patients without ENI developed isolated neck recurrences. All had further treatment for their neck disease, including neck dissection (n = 10), radiation (n = 10), or chemotherapy (n = 5). Six of these 11 patients (54.5%) demonstrated no evidence of further recurrence with a median follow-up of 55.5 months. CONCLUSION ENI significantly reduces the risk of cervical nodal recurrence in ENB patients with clinically N0 neck, but this did not translate to a survival benefit. Multimodality treatment for isolated neck recurrence provides a reasonable salvage rate. The greatest benefit for ENI appeared to be among younger patients who presented with Kadish C disease. Further studies are needed to confirm these findings.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Esthesioneuroblastoma is an uncommon cancer of the nasal cavity. We describe the outcomes for 26 patients treated with curative intent with photon radiotherapy (RT) at the University of Florida. METHODS Between May 1972 and June 2007, 26 patients received RT for previously untreated esthesioneuroblastoma of the nasal cavity. Sixteen patients were males and 10 were females with a median age of 55 years (range, 3 to 82 y). The modified Kadish stage distribution was: B, 7 patients; C, 17 patients; and D, 2 patients. Treatment modalities included the following: definitive RT, 5 patients; preoperative RT, 2 patients; and postoperative RT after resection, 19 patients. Elective neck irradiation (ENI) was performed in 17 (71%) of 24 N0 patients. RESULTS Rates of local control, cause-specific survival, and absolute overall survival at 5 years were 79%, 72%, and 69%, respectively. Overall survival among patients treated with definitive RT was 20% at 5 years, compared with 81% among those who underwent surgery and adjuvant RT (P=0.01). One (6%) of 17 patients who received ENI developed a recurrence in the neck and was successfully salvaged. Ultimate neck control was 100% at 5 years for patients who received ENI versus 69% among those not receiving ENI (P=0.0173). CONCLUSIONS Resection combined with adjuvant RT is more effective than surgery or RT alone in the treatment of esthesioneuroblastoma. ENI reduces the risk of regional relapse in patients with Kadish stage B and C cancers.

Abstract
PURPOSE Esthesioneuroblastoma is an uncommon malignancy of the head and neck for which there is no defined treatment protocol. The purpose of this study is to report our experience with the treatment and patterns of failure of this disease. METHODS AND MATERIALS From 1994 to 2012, 37 previously unreported patients with esthesioneuroblastoma were evaluated, and 32 eventually treated for cure at 2 academic medical centers. All patients were staged with Kadish criteria. The mean and median follow-ups were 96.1 and 76.5 months respectively (range 6-240 months). RESULTS The Kadish stage was A in 6 patients, B in 13 patients, and C in 13 patients. Four patients were initially treated with concurrent chemo-radiation therapy. Twenty-eight patients were treated with primary surgery. Two (2) underwent open medial maxillectomy and 26 underwent craniofacial resection (open - 17, endoscopic - 9). Three patients received curative surgical resection only. Seven patients failed either within the cranial axis or distantly, 6 of the 7 are dead of disease, 10-194 months following initial treatment. Six patients had isolated neck recurrences, 4/6 were salvaged with neck dissection and additional chemo-radiation and remain alive 30-194 months following initial treatment. Estimated overall survival rate at 10 years was 78% based on Kadish and T stages. CONCLUSION In this retrospective analysis of 32 patients, Kadish stage C and stage T3/T4 tumors were associated with worse outcome. Total radiation dose of 60 Gy, margin status, patient age, were not found to have significant prognostic value.

Abstract
Introduction Malignant sinonasal tumors comprise less than 1% of all neoplasms. A wide variety of tumors occurring primarily in this site can present with an undifferentiated or poorly differentiated morphology. Among them are esthesioneuroblastomas, sinonasal undifferentiated carcinomas, and neuroendocrine carcinomas. Objectives We will discuss diagnostic strategies, recent advances in immunohistochemistry and molecular diagnosis, and treatment strategies. Data Synthesis These lesions are diagnostically challenging, and up to 30% of sinonasal malignancies referred to the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center are given a different diagnosis on review of pathology. Correct classification is vital, as these tumors are significantly different in biological behavior and response to treatment. The past decade has witnessed advances in diagnosis and therapeutic modalities leading to improvements in survival. However, the optimal treatment for esthesioneuroblastoma, sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma, and neuroendocrine carcinoma remain debated. We discuss advances in immunohistochemistry and molecular diagnosis, diagnostic strategies, and treatment selection. Conclusions There are significant differences in prognosis and treatment for esthesioneuroblastoma, neuroendocrine carcinoma, and sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma. Recent advances have the potential to improve oncologic outcomes but further investigation in needed.

Abstract
Sinonasal malignancies are a rare subset of malignancies of the upper aerodigestive tract which had been traditionally approached via open techniques. This article primarily addresses a paradigm shift in endoscopic endonasal oncological resection utilizing principles of tumor disassembly and negative margins. The surgical steps to these endoscopic techniques are detailed, emphasizing principles of sound oncological resection.

Abstract
Surgical resection followed by radiotherapy can be considered like the optimal treatment modality for limited esthesioneuroblastoma. However, therapeutic management of locally advanced tumors remains a challenge. The aim of our study was to access and compare the oncologic results of the different treatment modalities in advanced esthesioneuroblastoma. We performed a systematic review using the Medline, and Cochrane database in accordance with PRISMA criteria and included all the cases of advanced esthesioneuroblastoma published between 2000 and 2013. We also retrospectively included 15 patients with an advanced esthesioneuroblastoma managed at our tertiary care medical center. Long-term survival rates defined as the time from diagnosis or randomization to the date of death or last follow-up were evaluated for each treatment with Kaplan-Meier survival curve analyses. 283 patients have been included. The mean follow-up was 78 months. Five-year highest survival rates were obtained in patients treated by surgery associated with radiotherapy. Ten-year highest survival rates were obtained in patients treated by the association of surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy (p = 0.0008). Within the surgical group, 5-year highest survival rates were obtained in patients treated by endoscopic resection (p = 0.003). Surgical resection combined with radiotherapy offers the gold standard of care. Adjuvant chemotherapy seems to improve the long-term survival in patients with locally advanced esthesioneuroblastoma. Endoscopic resection in advanced tumors should be discussed on a case-by-case basis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the clinical features, treatment outcomes, pattern of failures, and course of the disease of a cohort of patients treated for esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) with craniofacial resection (CFR) at a single institution during a 12-year period. MATERIAL AND METHODS Retrospective analysis of 11 patients with ENB treated with CFR in a tertiary care academic medical center from 1998 to 2009. RESULTS Median age at diagnosis was 51 years (range 41-67 years). The most common presenting symptom was nasal obstruction (91%). Four patients (36%) presented with Kadish stage B, six patients (55%) with Kadish stage C, and one patient (9%) with Kadish stage D. The initial treatment was craniofacial resection (CFR) alone for three patients (23%), CFR followed by postoperative radiation therapy (RT) in seven patients (64%), while one patient (9%) received both neoadjuvant and adjuvant RT in addition to surgery. The mean and median follow-up times were 66 and 58 months, respectively (range 23-158 months). Seven patients are currently alive with no evidence of disease (64%), while two patients are alive with disease (18%). Overall survival was 100% at one year postoperatively and 80% five years after the primary treatment. The progression free survival was calculated to 73% at one year and 64% at five years. CONCLUSIONS ENB is an uncommon diagnosis with an incidence of 0.037/100,000 persons/year in the catchment area of our institution. Treatment can be challenging, especially with advanced disease. CFR with RT offers good oncologic disease control with minimal morbidity.

Abstract
Objective Esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) is a rare malignant neuroendocrine neoplasm that is prone to both local and metastatic recurrence. Local recurrence may often be treated with repeat resection. However, stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) offers a noninvasive option. Design Prospective database review. Participants Gamma knife prospective databases were queried at all institutions within the North American Gamma Knife Consortium, 16 at the time of this report. All patients who had undergone SRS for ENB were included. Main Outcome Measure Response of recurrent ENB to SRS. Results A total of 31 locally recurrent tumors in 13 patients were treated with SRS. The median age was 49 years (range: 19-79 years). At a median follow-up of 36 months (range: 1-100 months), 13 (48%) treated tumors were smaller, 11 (41%) were stable, and 3 (11%) showed continued growth following SRS. Univariate analysis did not find any significant factor relating to failure of treatment. Notably, no treatment-related complications (0%) were observed in this cohort. Conclusion SRS appears to provide a safe and effective option for treatment of recurrent intracranial ENB. Overall, 89% of treated tumors were controlled in this multi-institutional study.

Abstract
Esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) involving the anterior skull base is a rare malignant tumour derived from the olfactory epithelium. The gold standard of surgical treatment is currently craniofacial resection (CFR), which allows efficient removal of the tumour but entails significant morbidity. To reduce morbidity combined with good visualization of tumour limits removal, endonasal endoscopy resection (EER) has developed. The objective of this work was (1) to describe the EER surgical procedure, the morbidity, and the limitations of this endoscopic approach as compared with CFR, (2) analyse recurrences to define risk factors of recurrences and (3) to discuss a therapeutic decision algorithm. Retrospective series of 18 patients with ENB endoscopically treated in a university tertiary referral centre over 13 years. Fifteen of those underwent radiotherapy. Epidemiological data, clinical and imaging findings, histology, treatment modalities and outcome of patients were studied. Mean follow-up was 31 months. Morbidity was mainly related to radiotherapy. Three recurrences were detected: one bone and one sylvian metastasis, and a local recurrence in a patient not irradiated. One recurrence spread through leptomeningeal propagation. Dural extension and frontal invasion were significantly associated with recurrences (p = 0.001 and p = 0.019, respectively). Patients with dural extension or frontal invasion should receive aggressive treatment. With a low rate of perioperative morbidity and efficient local control, EER seems to be a promising approach for selected cases of ENB.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Esthesioneuroblastoma is a rare cancer of the anterior cranial base that arises in the region of the olfactory rootlets. The purpose of this study was to review the long-term outcomes of patients diagnosed with esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) treated at a single institution to determine factors associated with improved disease control and survival. METHODS A retrospective review of 70 patients with ENB treated at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center between 1992 and 2007 was undertaken. Survival and recurrence was analyzed and compared using the Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank statistics. RESULTS Seventy patients were reviewed. The majority (77%) had T3 or T4 disease at presentation, 38% identified as modified Kadish stage C or D. Ninety percent of patients received surgical resection as part of their treatment, and 66% received postoperative radiation or chemoradiation. The median follow-up was 91.4 months (7.6 years). Forty-eight percent of patients developed recurrent disease and the median time to recurrence was 6.9 years. Overall and disease-specific median survival was 10.5 and 11.6 years, respectively. Patients who were treated with surgery alone had a median disease-specific survival of 87.9 months, whereas those who were treated with surgery and postoperative radiation had a median disease-specific survival of 218.5 months (p = .047). CONCLUSION Patients with ENB can achieve favorable long-term survival, even if disease is locally advanced. Survival is improved considerably when surgical resection is followed by postoperative radiation. However, recurrence rates and mortality remain high, and therefore long-term observation in these patients is warranted.
