Abstract
Sinonasal neoplasms are uncommon diseases, characterized by heterogeneous biological behavior, which frequently results in challenges in differential diagnosis and treatment choice. The aim of this review was to examine the pathogenesis and molecular mechanisms underlying the regulation of tumor initiation and growth, in order to better define diagnostic and therapeutic strategies as well as the prognostic impact of these rare neoplasms. A systematic review according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis criteria was conducted between September and November 2022. The authors considered the three main histological patterns of sinonasal tumors, namely Squamous Cell Carcinoma, Intestinal-Type Adenocarcinoma, and Olfactory Neuroblastoma. In total, 246 articles were eventually included in the analysis. The genetic and epigenetic changes underlying the oncogenic process were discussed, through a qualitative synthesis of the included studies. The identification of a comprehensive model of carcinogenesis for each sinonasal cancer subtype is needed, in order to pave the way toward tailored treatment approaches and improve survival for this rare and challenging group of cancers.

Long-term outcomes in sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma arising from inverted papilloma: Systematic review. Head Neck 2022; 44:1014-1029. [PMID: 35141984 DOI: 10.1002/hed.26995] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2021] [Revised: 11/03/2021] [Accepted: 01/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Long-term survival and recurrence patterns of squamous cell carcinoma arising from inverted papilloma (IP-SCC) have not been thoroughly investigated. Four electronic databases were searched and primary studies describing overall survival (OS), recurrence, and mean time to recurrence of patients with IP-SCC were included for review. Our search yielded 662 studies. The 28 studies selected for inclusion identified 663 patients with IP-SCC. In 596 patients with reported T classification, 439 (73.7%) were T3/T4 on presentation. Of the 650 participants with recurrence data (local, regional, and distant), 155 (23.8%) experienced a recurrence, with an aggregate mean time-to-recurrence of 24.3 months. In 565 patients with 5-year OS rates, the aggregate 5-year OS was 62%. Based on the literature to date, IP-SCC is associated with a 5-year OS rate of 62%. 23.8% of patients experienced recurrence at a mean time of 24.3 months, suggesting the need for long-term surveillance.

IMP3 Immunohistochemical Expression in Inverted Papilloma and Inverted Papilloma-Associated Sinonasal Squamous Cell Carcinoma. ACTA ACUST UNITED AC 2021; 2021:6639834. [PMID: 33680717 PMCID: PMC7904363 DOI: 10.1155/2021/6639834] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2020] [Accepted: 02/08/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Sinonasal inverted papilloma (IP) has a propensity for malignant transformation. Although the IP-associated squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is rare, it has a poor prognosis. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to assess IMP3 immunohistochemical (IHC) expression in sinonasal tumors and to compare it to the Ki-67 IHC expression and to other established clinicopathological parameters. A retrospective study was conducted on three groups which consisted of 72 cases of sinonasal IP, 20 age-matched samples of normal respiratory epithelium, and 15 cases of sinonasal SCC associated with IP, which were obtained from the archives of the Pathology Lab of Ain Shams University Specialized and Ain Shams University Hospitals during the period from January 2012 to December 2019. An IHC study was performed to evaluate IMP3 and Ki-67 expression in the three groups, with correlation of IMP3 expression to established clinicopathological parameters of sinonasal SCC on top of IP. Both IMP3 and Ki-67 showed a sharp rise in expression in the sinonasal SCC group. In addition, there were statistically significant differences in expression values between the 3 groups (P = 0.001). Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) analysis revealed that IMP3 and Ki-67 could be used to discriminate sinonasal SCC from control and IP lesions, with sensitivity and specificity of 100% and 81.5% for IMP3, respectively, and 100% and 62.5% for Ki-67, respectively. Spearman's rho revealed that both IMP3 and Ki-67 were significantly related to the lymph node and tumor stages but not to the tumor grade. ROC analysis was performed to select cut-off scores for progression and survival for IMP3, and accordingly, Kaplan-Meier analysis showed correlation between IMP3 and overall survival, local recurrence-free survival, and metastasis-free survival in sinonasal SCC cases at the selected cut-off values. Based on our results, IMP3 could serve as a promising diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic marker for IP-associated sinonasal SCC.

Abstract
Background Schneiderian papillomas (SP) are aggressive sinonasal tumors that occasionally extend into areas that are surgically unresectable. Objective evaluate the signifcance of cyclo-oxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression in SP. Methods Immunohistochemistry for COX-2 was performed on SP samples and middle turbinates from chronic rhinosinusitis without nasal polyps controls obtained during surgical resection between 2009–2017. A positive stain was defined as having 10% or more cells exhibiting diffuse immunoreactivity. Comparisons were performed using Fisher Exact tests, t-tests, and ANOVA. Results The study included 67 tumor samples and 9 controls from two academic institutions. The mean age of the SP group was 55.4 years and 53.2 years in the control group (p = 0.71). Thirty-nine (58.2%) SP patients had previous surgery compared to 1 (11.1%) in the control group (p = 0.01). The most common tumor attachment sites were the maxillary (47.8%) and ethmoid (25.4%) sinuses. Fifteen (22.4%) SP samples stained strongly positive for COX-2 and 24 (35.8%) stained weakly positive compared to no positive stains in the control group (p < 0.01). When stratified by COX-2 intensity, there were no statistically significant differences in gender, smoking history, history of previous sinus surgery, site of attachment, papilloma subtype, or future recurrence between SP samples. Conclusion COX-2 was overexpressed in 58.2% of SP cases, and strongly positive in 22.4% of cases, compared to no positive staining among controls. No significant differences in COX-2 expression were observed between SP subtypes or recurrent tumors. Further studies are warranted to evaluate COX-2 as a possible therapeutic target in tumors that overexpress the enzyme.

Abstract
Background Inverted papilloma (IP) is an unusual type of benign tumor that has high recurrence rates and the potential to transform into squamous cell carcinomas (SCC). The mechanism of the transformation process from IP to IP-SCC is uncertain and there is no consensus regarding the best practice for IP-SCC detection. The goal of this study is to identify the best clinical methods to detect for IP-SCC. Methods An evidence-based review was performed using Medline and Ovid to obtain all articles up to October 10th, 2019 pertaining to identification of IP malignant transformation. All manuscripts discussing clinical methods or biomarkers were included. Results Based on clinical research studies, convoluted cerebriform pattern and apparent diffusion coefficient values on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) can help differentiate benign IP from SCC and increased SUVmax on PET/CT is associated with higher probability of malignancy although not as specific. No consensus about the best biomarker for IP-SCC has been reached among researchers and continues to be exploratory. Conclusion Endoscopy with biopsy is the gold standard practice to identify IP-SCC; however, MRI is the preferred imaging modality to recognize malignant transformation in cases where biopsy is difficult. Multiple biomarkers have shown positive results, but no single indicator with clinical significance for monitoring malignant transformation process has been found.

Abstract
Background Sinonasal inverted papilloma (IP) is a rare tumor of nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses. Its etiology and factors associated with tumor progression remains unclear. Forkhead Box M1 (FoxM1) has also been suggested to serve as an oncogene due to its pivotal roles in cell proliferation and cell cycle regulation. The aim of this study was to characterize the expression pattern of FoxM1 in IP and IP with associated squamous cell carcinoma (IPwSCC). Methods The study included 8 subjects with IPwSCC, 17 subjects with sinonasal IP, and 8 normal uncinate tissue (UT) mucosa. Real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and immunohistochemistry were used to assess the expression and distribution of FoxM1, polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1), cyclin B1, and cyclin D1 in IP tissues and normal control. The expression of FoxM1, PLK1, cyclin B1, and cyclin D1 in IPwSCC was evaluated using immunohistochemistry. Results The messenger RNA (mRNA) expression of FoxM1, PLK1, cyclin B1, and cyclin D1 was significantly upregulated in IP tissues versus normal UT by real-time PCR (all P values < .05). Using immunohistochemistry, the expression of FoxM1 was observed in the tumor cells of sinonasal IP and IPwSCC, but scarce positive cells in normal UT mucosa. The percentage of positive FoxM1-staining cells was statistically higher in IPwSCC than IP and normal UT mucosa (both P < .05). Both mRNA and protein expression of FoxM1 in IP with or without associated squamous cell carcinoma was correlated with tumor histological grades (both P < .05). Conclusion FoxM1, a proliferation specific transcription factor, was overexpressed in sinonasal IP and IPwSCC. FoxM1 might be a key molecule associated with growth of IP and malignant transformation of IP into IPwSCC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The mechanism underlying the malignant transformation of inverted papilloma (IP) has not yet been elucidated. METHODS To clarify the genes responsible for the malignant transformation, we analyzed 10 cases of IP, 8 of IP with dysplasia, and 11 of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) by targeted amplicon sequencing. RESULTS The number of mutant genes increased in the order of IP < dysplasia < SCC. Significant differences were observed in the mutation rates of three genes (KRAS, APC and STK11) in particular. TP53 was altered frequently in each group and might be involved in malignant transformation based on to the site of the mutation. A comparison of the genetic variants by region of IP tissue among patients with IP alone, and those with dysplasia or SCC revealed significant differences in the mutation rate of the KRAS gene. CONCLUSION Identification of genetic mutations in KRAS is effective for predicting the malignant transformation of IP.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) accounts for <1% of all malignancies but represents 70% of sinonasal cancer. Up to 10% of SCCs are associated with inverted papilloma (IPSCC). Studies that compare patients, treatment, and outcomes of SCC and IPSCC are absent in the literature. METHODS A retrospective review of patients with SCC and those with IPSCC at Cleveland Clinic and Indiana University from 1995 to 2015. The records were analyzed for demographics, tumor characteristics, treatment, and outcomes. RESULTS The study comprised 117 patients with SCC, of whom, 29 had IPSCC. The mean age at diagnosis was similar: 63 and 64 years for patients with SCC and patients with IPSCC, respectively; with female patients representing 36% and 34%, respectively (p > 0.99).Smokers represented 64% of the patients with SCC and 55% of patients with IPSCC (p = 0.3); excessive alcohol intake was noted in 16% of the patients with SCC and 21% of the patients with IPSCC (p = 0.56).The maxillary sinus was most commonly involved, followed by the nasal cavity (51% versus 35% SCC, 45% versus 38% IPSCC). Frontal ethmoid and sphenoid sinuses contained primary tumors only in patients with SCC. Upfront treatment was surgery in 84% of patients with SCC and 97% of patients with IPSCC (p = 0.18); 68 and 55% received radiation, respectively, and 25 and 21% received chemotherapy, respectively.Overall survival averaged 5.5 and 3.4 years for patients with SCC and patients with IPSCC, respectively (p = 0.12); disease-free survival was 4.8 and 2.9 years, respectively (p = 0.18). Nodal metastasis was more likely in patients with SCC (18 versus 0%; p = 0.02). When divided into high- and low-stage disease: more common nodal metastases were demonstrated in high-stage SCC than in low-stage disease (p = 0.03). Overall survival was decreased between high- and low-grade disease but not when subdivided between SCC and IPSCC. CONCLUSION Although SCC with and without IP association are considered different diseases, their demographics and outcomes seem similar. Nodal metastasis was noted to be higher in the SCC cohort, which may indicate different tumor biology. Further study is warranted.

Abstract
Sinonasal inverted papilloma (SIP) is a benign tumor of the nasal cavity and sinus. SIP is characterized by aggressive malignant transformation and a high rate of recurrence. Inadequate removal of the tumor during surgery is one of the most significant contributors to SIP recurrence. A growing body of evidence suggests that molecular alteration in SIP, including human papilloma virus infections, single nucleotide polymorphisms of key genes, deregulation of signaling pathways and immunological changes, may lead to SIP occurrence and malignant transformation. However, the extent to which these molecular mechanisms contribute to SIP pathology and transformation remains unclear due to limited research. Further studies are warranted to elucidate the primary dependent factors that contribute to SIP etiology. The present article reviewed risk factors of progression and recurrence of SIP, including outdoor and industrial occupational exposure, smoking, septal deviation, SIP location, recurrent cases, stage of SIP-associated squamous cell carcinoma and choice of surgical method.

Abstract
Schneiderian papillomas are uncommon tumors which may develop within the nasal cavity and comprise three well-defined histological types: sinonasal inverted papilloma (SNIP), exophytic papilloma, and oncocytic papilloma. It is well known the rate of Schneiderian papilloma may also present a malignant degeneration and SNIP represents the most important subgroup in consideration of its frequency and malignant propensity. Although HPV infection is always considered the first event favoring the development of SNIP, however, it is not established as an eventual connection between viral actions and malignant transformation. In fact, different molecular mechanisms are suspected to play a crucial role in this process and, currently, many authors agree that only by improving our knowledge about these mechanisms it will be possible to achieve new and effective targeted therapies. So the aim of this study was firstly to systematically review the literature focusing on different biomarkers that could be implicated in the stages of SNIP malignant degeneration. Secondly, a systematic review with meta-analysis was performed to better define the incidence of sinonasal malignancies originating from Schneiderian papilloma (SNIP, exophytic papilloma, and oncocytic papilloma). Twenty-nine studies comprising a total of 3177 patients were statistically analyzed. Results showed a 9% (95% CI = 7-11) overall rate of malignant transformation from Schneiderian papilloma. In conclusion, this analysis confirmed that the potential malignancy of Schneiderian papilloma should not be underestimated. On the other hand, our review showed the paucity of studies investigating the molecular alterations which may be related with the malignant transformation of SNIP.

Braz J Otorhinolaryngol 2017; 84:338-343. [PMID: 28479047 PMCID: PMC9449244 DOI: 10.1016/j.bjorl.2017.03.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2017] [Revised: 03/19/2017] [Accepted: 03/28/2017] [Indexed: 01/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Sinonasal inverted papilloma constitute relevant therapeutic problem due to destructive character of growth, tendency to recur and the possibility of malignant transformation. Therefore, many attempts to identify risk factors for inverted papilloma occurrence have been undertaken, as well as research to find markers that would allow for the earlier detection of tumors and the application of adequate therapy. A widely known risk factor of inverted papilloma is HPV infection. One of the markers of HPV infection and the ongoing effect of this change (although arousing some controversy) is the expression of the p16 protein. Objective The aim of the study was to analyze the correlation between the expression of p16 as a surrogate of HPV infection in analyzed histopathological material and epidemiological variables, recurrences or malignant transformation. Methods The retrospective study includes a group of 53 patients (18 women and 35 men) undergoing treatment for sinonasal inverted papilloma in the period of 2002–2012. The intensity of the p16 protein in histopathological material was scored as: 0 – no expression, 1 – diffuse expression (borderline) and 2 – positive expression; or 0 – no expression/diffuse expression (borderline); 1 – positive expression. The Ethics Committee agreement was obtained (1089/12; 245/13). Results and conclusion There was no statistically significant relationship between the expression of p16 and the age of patients, cigarette smoking, tumor location, tumor staging according to the Krouse and Cannady classification, the presence of dysplasia or the occurrence of relapse.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sinonasal inverted papilloma (IP) is one of the most common benign tumors of the sinonasal area and malignant transformation has frequently been reported. However, the exact mechanism of the transition from benign lesion to malignancy is not known. The Wnt signaling pathway involves a network of multiple signaling glycoproteins that are known to play an important role in embryogenesis and carcinogenesis. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the role of the Wnt pathway and signaling proteins in malignant transformation of IP to dysplasia and squamous cell carcinoma. METHODS Expression of the Wnt signaling pathway proteins, including Wnt-1, beta-catenin, cyclin D1, and Dishevelled-1 (Dvl-1), were detected by immunohistochemistry by using 3-mm tissue core microarrays that consisted of 115 cores of IP tissue. Each of the IP cores was graded as I (prominent squamous metaplasia), II (inverted pattern), III (dysplasia), or IV (squamous cell carcinoma). The expression pattern of each protein and the correlation between the expression of each target protein and IP grade were evaluated. RESULTS Membranous staining of beta-catenin showed a significant positive correlation with IP grade (ρ = 0.247, p < 0.001), as did staining of cyclin D1 (ρ = 0.365, p < 0.001), which showed a nuclear pattern and staining of Dvl-1 (ρ = 0.380, p < 0.001), which showed a membranous, cytoplasmic, and nuclear pattern. For Dvl-1, a nuclear expression pattern was more frequently observed in grade III and IV IP (p = 0.036). In the case of Wnt-1, cytoplasmic expression was observed; however, it did not show a significant correlation with IP grade (ρ = 0.141, p = 0.130). CONCLUSIONS Wnt signaling proteins, including beta-catenin, cyclin D1, and Dvl-1, may play crucial roles in the malignant transformation of IP.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Inverted papillomas are a benign sinonasal tumor with a propensity for recurrence and malignant transformation. Although many investigations have been made into the nature of this disease, its etiology and causes for malignant transformation have yet to be fully elucidated. It is the authors' objective to present a review on management of the disease and evaluate the present relationship between human papilloma virus (HPV) and inverted papilloma. RECENT FINDINGS A causal relationship between HPV and the pathogenesis and progression of inverted papilloma has been posited since the 1980s. Although widely varied HPV detection rates have been reported, recent studies have noted a substantial increase in both recurrence and malignant transformation in HPV-infected inverted papillomas. However, exact cellular mechanisms by which infection leads to subsequent recurrence and development of carcinoma have yet to be elucidated. SUMMARY Evidence exists suggesting that HPV infection plays a role in the progression of inverted papilloma and confers an increased risk for recurrence and malignant transformation. PCR is the preferred detection method, and fresh or frozen specimens are the ideal source of tissue for evaluation. Although multiple studies have detected an association between HPV and inverted papilloma (both recurrent and malignant transformation), further studies are necessary to elucidate the underlying molecular pathways before an association can be changed to causation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inverted papilloma (IP) is a benign, but locally aggressive neoplasm of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses. The mainstay of treatment of IP is surgical resection, but high rates of tumor recurrence have been reported. Cyclo-oxygenase-2 (COX-2) has been found to be overexpressed in many tumors and has been used successfully as a therapeutic target. The goal of this study is to highlight COX-2 expression in IP. METHODS Immunohistochemistry for COX-2 was performed on IP samples obtained during surgical resection between January 2012 and June 2013. The intensity of staining was evaluated by 2 head and neck pathologists blinded to the clinical features and outcomes. A positive stain was defined as having 10% or more of tumor cells exhibiting immunoreactivity. RESULTS The study includes 13 tumor samples from 7 females and 6 males. Mean age was 54.5 (range, 18-81) years. Tumor locations included: nasal septum (1), ethmoid (3), sphenoid (4), and maxillary (5) sinuses. No tumors demonstrated malignancy or dysplasia. Five (38%) of the 13 IP samples stained strongly positive for COX-2, and 3 of 13 (23%) stained weakly positive. There were no clinical differences in patients that stained strongly or weakly for COX-2. CONCLUSION COX-2 overexpression was identified in 62% of cases of IP in this study, and strongly positive in 38% of cases. Larger studies are necessary to identify the true incidence of COX-2 expression for this tumor. Pharmaceuticals targeting COX-2 may eventually provide an additional therapeutic option for select cases of recurrent or unresectable IP.
