Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg 2024. [PMID: 38895868 DOI: 10.1002/ohn.826] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/04/2023] [Revised: 04/03/2024] [Accepted: 04/19/2024] [Indexed: 06/21/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Olfactory neuroblastoma is a rare sinonasal malignancy with comparatively positive prognosis and survival, but with a range of biological behaviors that can be difficult to prognosticate with current means of risk stratification. Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has been found across a diverse range of malignancies to be associated with poorer outcomes. This paper aims to elucidate the relationship of NLR with olfactory neuroblastoma to assess its prognostic value in this setting. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective chart review. SETTING A single tertiary care academic hospital. METHODS The study cohort included all patients treated for initial presentation of olfactory neuroblastoma from 2004 to 2020. NLR was calculated from preoperative labs, and each patient was evaluated for Kadish staging, Hyams grade, intraoperative positive margin, use of adjuvant therapy, posttreatment recurrence, and death. All statistical analysis was conducted using R and relationship between NLR and variables was assessed via binomial logistic regression. RESULTS Forty-four patients were included, 24 were male. Average age 52.8, average length of follow-up was 9.6 years. Patients were grouped by low (Kadish A/B) and advanced (Kadish C/D) stage, n = 23 and n = 21, respectively, and low (Hyams I/II) and high (Hyams III/IV) risk, n = 15 and n = 11, respectively. Advanced Kadish stage was associated with elevated NLR, odds ratio 5.69 [2.30, 20.7], P = .001. No other variables were associated with elevated NLR including Hyams grade, margin status, recurrence, and mortality. CONCLUSION Higher Kadish grade is associated with elevated NLR which may provide novel prognostic value to current risk-stratifying systems.

Abstract
The olfactory epithelium undergoes neuronal regeneration from basal stem cells and is susceptible to olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB), a rare tumor of unclear origins. Employing alterations in Rb1/Trp53/Myc (RPM), we establish a genetically engineered mouse model of high-grade metastatic ONB exhibiting a NEUROD1+ immature neuronal phenotype. We demonstrate that globose basal cells (GBCs) are a permissive cell of origin for ONB and that ONBs exhibit cell fate heterogeneity that mimics normal GBC developmental trajectories. ASCL1 loss in RPM ONB leads to emergence of non-neuronal histopathologies, including a POU2F3+ microvillar-like state. Similar to small-cell lung cancer (SCLC), mouse and human ONBs exhibit mutually exclusive NEUROD1 and POU2F3-like states, an immune-cold tumor microenvironment, intratumoral cell fate heterogeneity comprising neuronal and non-neuronal lineages, and cell fate plasticity-evidenced by barcode-based lineage tracing and single-cell transcriptomics. Collectively, our findings highlight conserved similarities between ONB and neuroendocrine tumors with significant implications for ONB classification and treatment.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE Olfactory neuroblastoma or esthesioneuroblastoma is a rare malignant tumour, that develops in the olfactory neuroepithelium and is one of the rarest tumours of the nasal cavity. Ocular manifestations are uncommon. The diagnosis is based on histology: biopsy, immunohistochemistry and ultrastructural findings. CASE PRESENTATION We report a case of olfactory neuroblastoma of the olfactory placode in a 36-year-old woman with orbital involvement. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging of the skull, showed a suspicious lesion with significant orbital and cranial extension. After anatomopathological study of the biopsy, a protocol palliative radiotherapy was established. CLINICAL DISCUSSION We discuss the clinical, radiological, anatomopathological and therapeutic aspects of this condition, emphasising the importance of evoking this diagnosis in the presence of unilateral tumour-like exophthalmos associated with suggestive rhinological signs. CONCLUSION Ophthalmological involvement usually occurs at an advanced stage of esthesioneuroblastoma. This case highlights the fatal course of olfactory neuroblastoma. As it can present with the comlex symptoms related to ocular and nasal sites. Early diagnosis is the key to better therapeutic choices according to its level of extension, purposing at the best possible prognosis for the patient.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Due to the rarity of olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB), there is ongoing debate about optimal treatment strategies, especially for early-stage or locally advanced cases. Therefore, our study aimed to explore experiences from multiple centers to identify factors that influence the oncological outcomes of ONB. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 195 ONB patients treated at nine tertiary hospitals in South Korea between December 1992 and December 2019. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to evaluate oncological outcomes, and a Cox proportional hazards regression model was employed to analyze prognostic factors for survival outcomes. Furthermore, we conducted 1:1 nearest-neighbor matching to investigate differences in clinical outcomes according to the use of neoadjuvant chemotherapy. RESULTS In our cohort, the 5-year overall survival (OS) rate was 78.6%, and the 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) rate was 62.4%. The Cox proportional hazards model revealed that the modified Kadish (mKadish) stage and Dulguerov T status were significantly associated with DFS, while the mKadish stage and Hyams grade were identified as prognostic factors for OS. The subgroup analyses indicated a trend toward improved 5-year DFS with dural resection in mKadish A and B cases, even though the result was statistically insignificant. Induction chemotherapy did not provide a survival benefit in this study after matching for the mKadish stage and nodal status. CONCLUSION Clinical staging and pathologic grading are important prognostic factors in ONB. Dural resection in mKadish A and B did not show a significant survival benefit. Similarly, induction chemotherapy also did not show a survival benefit, even after stage matching.

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
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
BACKGROUND Traditional management of olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB) includes margin-negative resection with removal of cribriform plate, dura, and olfactory bulb, regardless of intracranial disease. This approach may be overtreating certain patients. Our investigation examines risk factors associated with occult intracranial disease to optimize therapeutic outcomes. METHODS This retrospective, multi-institutional cohort study examined clinical covariates associated with occult intracranial involvement. Patient demographics, staging, Hyam's grade, and pathologic involvement of dura, olfactory bulb/tract, and brain were collected. Diagnostic imaging was reviewed. Positive and negative predictive value (NPV) were estimated along with effect size estimates. Cox hazard regression examined associations with overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). RESULTS A total of 224 subjects with new diagnoses of ONB (2005-2021) were identified. Skull base bone involvement on computed tomography (CT) had the highest NPV for pathologic dura (88.0%), olfactory bulb (88%), and brain involvement (97.3%). Hyam's grade category was significantly associated with dural involvement (φC = 0.26; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.16, 0.42). Subjects without radiologic skull base involvement (n = 66) had pathologic positivity of 12.1%. Within this subgroup, Hyam's grade was clinically significant for dural positivity (φ = 0.34; 95% CI: -0.12, 0.71) with 28.6% involvement in high grade tumors. Neither clinical nor pathologic positivity of intracranial structures were associated with significantly different OS or DFS. CONCLUSIONS Both CT and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) had reasonably good NPV for involvement of dura and olfactory bulb. Higher Hyam's grade was associated with dural involvement. Patients with low-grade tumors not involving the skull base may be suitable for avoiding skull base resection; however, further investigation is warranted.

Abstract
Importance Current olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB) staging systems inadequately delineate locally advanced tumors, do not incorporate tumor grade, and poorly estimate survival and recurrence. Objective The primary aims of this study were to (1) examine the clinical covariates associated with survival and recurrence of ONB in a modern-era multicenter cohort and (2) incorporate Hyams tumor grade into existing staging systems to assess its ability to estimate survival and recurrence. Design, Setting, and Participants This retrospective, multicenter, case-control study included patients with ONB who underwent treatment between January 1, 2005, and December 31, 2021, at 9 North American academic medical centers. Intervention Standard-of-care ONB treatment. Main Outcome and Measures The main outcomes were overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), and disease-specific survival (DSS) as C statistics for model prediction. Results A total of 256 patients with ONB (mean [SD] age, 52.0 [15.6] years; 115 female [44.9%]; 141 male [55.1%]) were included. The 5-year rate for OS was 83.5% (95% CI, 78.3%-89.1%); for DFS, 70.8% (95% CI, 64.3%-78.0%); and for DSS, 94.1% (95% CI, 90.5%-97.8%). On multivariable analysis, age, American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) stage, involvement of bilateral maxillary sinuses, and positive margins were associated with OS. Only AJCC stage was associated with DFS. Only N stage was associated with DSS. When assessing the ability of staging systems to estimate OS, the best-performing model was the novel modification of the Dulguerov system (C statistic, 0.66; 95% CI, 0.59-0.76), and the Kadish system performed most poorly (C statistic, 0.57; 95% CI, 0.50-0.63). Regarding estimation of DFS, the modified Kadish system performed most poorly (C statistic, 0.55; 95% CI, 0.51-0.66), while the novel modification of the AJCC system performed the best (C statistic, 0.70; 95% CI, 0.66-0.80). Regarding estimation of DSS, the modified Kadish system was the best-performing model (C statistic, 0.79; 95% CI, 0.70-0.94), and the unmodified Kadish performed the worst (C statistic, 0.56; 95% CI, 0.51-0.68). The ability for novel ONB staging systems to estimate disease progression across stages was also assessed. In the novel Kadish staging system, patients with stage VI disease were approximately 7 times as likely to experience disease progression as patients with stage I disease (hazard ratio [HR], 6.84; 95% CI, 1.60-29.20). Results were similar for the novel modified Kadish system (HR, 8.99; 95% CI, 1.62-49.85) and the novel Dulguerov system (HR, 6.86; 95% CI, 2.74-17.18). Conclusions and Relevance The study findings indicate that 5-year OS for ONB is favorable and that incorporation of Hyams grade into traditional ONB staging systems is associated with improved estimation of disease progression.

Abstract
Olfactory neuroblastoma is a rare tumor arising from the olfactory cleft region of the nasal cavity. Because of the low incidence of this tumor, as well as an absence of established cell lines and murine models, understanding the mechanisms driving olfactory neuroblastoma pathobiology has been challenging. Here, we sought to apply advances from research on the human olfactory epithelial neurogenic niche, along with new biocomputational approaches, to better understand the cellular and molecular factors in low- and high-grade olfactory neuroblastoma and how specific transcriptomic markers may predict prognosis. We analyzed a total of 19 olfactory neuroblastoma samples with available bulk RNA-sequencing and survival data, along with 10 samples from normal olfactory epithelium. A bulk RNA-sequencing deconvolution model identified a significant increase in globose basal cell (GBC) and CD8 T-cell identities in high-grade tumors (GBC from ∼0% to 8%, CD8 T cell from 0.7% to 2.2%), and significant decreases in mature neuronal, Bowman's gland, and olfactory ensheathing programs, in high-grade tumors (mature neuronal from 3.7% to ∼0%, Bowman's gland from 18.6% to 10.5%, olfactory ensheathing from 3.4% to 1.1%). Trajectory analysis identified potential regulatory pathways in proliferative olfactory neuroblastoma cells, including PRC2, which was validated by immunofluorescence staining. Survival analysis guided by gene expression in bulk RNA-sequencing data identified favorable prognostic markers such as SOX9, S100B, and PLP1 expression. Significance Our analyses provide a basis for additional research on olfactory neuroblastoma management, as well as identification of potential new prognostic markers.

Abstract
Sinonasal tumors are rare, diverse, complex lesions with overlapping demographic and clinical features. Malignant tumors are more common, with a grave prognosis, and require biopsy for accurate diagnosis. This article briefly reviews the classification of sinonasal tumors and provides imaging examples and imaging characteristics of each clinically important nasal and paranasal mass lesions. Although there are no true pathognomonic imaging features, it is important for the radiologist to have a broad knowledge of the various CT and MR imaging findings that can help narrow the differential diagnosis and aid in early diagnosis and mapping of tumor for treatment planning.

Abstract
Olfactory neuroblastoma is a rare, undifferentiated carcinoma of the nasal cavity. It is an extremely rare malignancy, usually occurring in the sixth decade of life with no known underlying cause. In this case report, we present a 71-year-old male with an enlarging facial mass near the right medial nasal bridge, initially diagnosed as undifferentiated carcinoma on biopsy and later confirmed as olfactory neuroblastoma eroding into the anterior skull base. Our patient presented with the signs and symptoms of epiphora, epistaxis, intermittent headaches, anosmia, and an enlarging facial mass. The treatment modalities include surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy. The purpose of this case report is to highlight the importance of chemotherapy and adjuvant radiotherapy for treatment without the need for surgery. Further studies need to be done to divulge the risk factors for olfactory neuroblastoma and to implore new chemotherapeutic treatment modalities that minimize long-term mortality and morbidity.

Abstract
Background Paraneoplastic peripheral neuropathy (PPN) caused by olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB) has not yet been reported. Case report We present a rare case of an adult who hospitalized repeatedly over the past 9 months for persistent pain and numbness in the limbs. This patient was initially diagnosed with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) and treated accordingly, but neurological symptoms did not improve significantly. After this admission, FDG-PET/CT showed focal hypermetabolism of a soft-tissue mass in the nasal cavity, and further lesion biopsy suggested ONB. Combined with positive serum anti-Hu antibody, the diagnosis of PPN associated with ONB was eventually made. Furthermore, the patient's neurological symptoms were relieved after removal of the primary tumor, confirming the accuracy of the diagnosis. Conclusion Our case not only expanded the clinical characteristics of ONB but also highlighted the importance of early and comprehensive tumor screening for the diagnosis of PPN.

Abstract
Olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB) is an ectodermal malignant tumor originating from the olfactory nerve epithelium of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinus. Olfactory neuroblastoma is a rare cancer, with an estimated incidence of 0.4 per million. Olfactory neuroblastoma often occurs in the top of the nasal cavity or near the lateral wall of the middle turbinate, which accounts for approximately 3% to 5% of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinus tumors. Olfactory neuroblastoma primarily in the nasopharynx is rare and tends to be misdiagnosed as nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Herein, we presented a case of ONB of the nasopharynx with recurrent nasopharyngeal tumor and by lymph node metastasis in both sides of the neck 14 months after surgical removal of the primary ONB. Long-term disease-free survival was achieved by definitive radiotherapy. Surgery combined with radiotherapy or definitive radiotherapy is recommended for primary ONB of the nasopharynx, radiotherapy target delineation including nasopharynx and pharyngeal lymph nodes, and neck lymph node drainage area of level Ib, Ⅱ, and Ⅲ.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The purpose of review is to provide a comprehensive review of the literature focusing on the recent advances in the diagnosis, molecular underpinning, and targeted therapy of olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB). RECENT FINDINGS Studies focused on the molecular fingerprinting of ONB are critical to engage new promising treatment strategies. Molecular-based subtype classifications have been proposed (basal-like ONB and neural-like ONB) but are not widely used. The rationale for implementation of DNA methylation analysis and IDH2 sequencing in routine work-up for ONB is gaining recognition. Expression of somatostatin receptors (SSTR) in ONB open new avenues for both, diagnostic (especially metastatic disease) and new treatment protocols with somatostatin analogs. Olfactory carcinoma is proposed as a unifying diagnostic terminology pertinent to epithelial divergent differentiation in olfactory neuroblastoma. Molecular (genetic and epigenetic) efforts on olfactory neuroblastoma are promising; however further refinement is needed for employment of these biomarkers as clinical standard of care. Ongoing and future multi-institutional collaborative studies will contribute to further understanding of ONB biology and aid the development of targeted treatments for this disease.

Long-term survival outcomes and recurrence patterns of olfactory neuroblastoma: A 13-year experience at a single institution. Auris Nasus Larynx 2022:S0385-8146(22)00231-0. [PMID: 36588056 DOI: 10.1016/j.anl.2022.12.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/17/2022] [Revised: 12/01/2022] [Accepted: 12/09/2022] [Indexed: 12/31/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB), also known as esthesioneuroblastoma, is a rare malignant neoplasm of the nasal vault and anterior skull base. The results of treatment for ONB are relatively good; however, regional and distant metastases can develop several years after definitive treatment. This study aimed to validate the treatment modality of ONB for oncological outcomes, especially for regional recurrence. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 22 patients diagnosed with ONB at Kyoto University Hospital between 2009 and 2020. Descriptive statistics were calculated, and Kaplan-Meier curves were used. RESULTS The median follow-up time was 58.2 months. One (4.5%) patient was clinically node positive, (cN+) and the remaining 21 (95.5%) were clinically node negative (cN0) at presentation. Eighteen patients underwent an endoscopic endonasal approach (EEA) for primary resection, and the remaining four patients underwent a combined EEA and transcranial approach. Elective neck dissection was not performed for 21 patients with cN0 ONB, whereas unilateral neck dissection with removal of ipsilateral lateral retropharyngeal node was performed for one patient with cN+ ONB. Postoperative radiotherapy without concurrent chemotherapy was performed only at the primary tumor bed for 21 patients with cN0 ONB, and at the primary tumor bed and bilateral neck for one patient with cN+ ONB. The 5-year overall, disease-specific, and disease-free survival rates were 94.1%, 100%, and 69.6%, respectively. No patients developed local recurrence, but 6 (27.2%) patients experienced recurrence with a median time to recurrence of 36.4 months, including four and two patients who initially developed regional recurrences and bone metastases, respectively. Five (22.7%) patients had delayed neck recurrence. The salvage rate was only 60.0% in the five patients who had delayed neck recurrence. Regarding the level of delayed neck recurrence, 4 (18.2%) patients had lateral retropharyngeal lymph node metastases. CONCLUSION Patients with ONB have excellent survival outcomes after endoscopic surgical resection of the primary lesion with postoperative radiotherapy only to the primary tumor bed. Despite excellent survival, delayed neck recurrence, including the lateral retropharyngeal lymph node, remains high. Because salvage surgery for lateral retropharyngeal lymph node recurrence is sometimes technically difficult, it may be better to extend the field of postoperative radiotherapy from the primary tumor bed only to include bilateral lateral retropharyngeal lymph node regions in patients with clinically N0 ONB. Further prospective studies with a large number of patients are needed to determine the extent of postoperative radiotherapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) is a rare malignant neoplasm arising from the olfactory epithelium of the cribriform plate. The goal of this study was to update our oncologic outcomes for this disease and explore prognostic factors associated with survival. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed a retrospective analysis of patients with ENB treated at a single tertiary care institution from January 1, 1960, to January 1, 2020. Univariate and multivariate analysis was performed. Overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) were reported. RESULTS Among 143 included patients, the 5-year OS was 82.3% and the 5-year PFS was 51.6%; 5-year OS and PFS have improved in the modern era (2005-present). Delayed regional nodal metastasis was the most common site of recurrence in 22% of patients (median, 57 months). On univariate analysis, modified Kadish staging (mKadish) had a negative effect on OS, PFS, and DMFS (p < 0.05). Higher Hyams grade had a negative effect on PFS and DMFS (p < 0.05). Positive margin status had a negative effect on PFS (p < 0.05). Orbital invasion demonstrated worsening OS (hazard ratio, 3.1; p < 0.05). On multivariable analysis, high Hyams grade (3 or 4), high mKadish stage (C+D), and increasing age were independent negative prognostic factors for OS (p < 0.05). High Hyams grade (3+4), high mKadish stage (C+D), age, and positive margin status were independent negative prognostic factors for PFS (p < 0.05). High Hyams grade (3+4) was an independent negative prognostic factor for DMFS (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Patients with low Hyams grade and mKadish stage have favorable 5-year OS, PFS, and DMFS.

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
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Sinonasal malignancies are rare and understudied, often diagnosed at late stages, and may behave aggressively. This review explores investigative diagnostic, therapeutic, and scientific advances specific to sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma (SNUC), intestinal-type adenocarcinoma (ITAC), and olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB). RECENT FINDINGS A number of studies have recently contributed more robust knowledge of the genetic and molecular landscapes of SNUC, ITAC, and ONB. These analyses have identified SMARCB1 and IDH2 mutations in SNUC, potentially allowing for the tumor's subdivision. Recent studies have also defined a role for induction chemotherapy in SNUC. Somatic mutations for ITAC have been identified and may be potentially targetable with FDA approved therapies. Studies defining the tumor microenvironment for ITAC and ONB have introduced the possibility of immune checkpoint inhibition for these tumor types. SUMMARY Studies reviewed here detail promising results of the most current and novel characterization of SNUC, ITAC, and ONB genetic and molecular landscapes, which have informed ongoing therapeutic discovery. With continued multi-institutional efforts, the field of sinonasal tumor research will achieve higher disease control and improved treatment outcomes for patients afflicted with these rare cancers.

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
Olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB) is a rare neuroepithelial-derived malignancy that usually presents in the nasal cavity. The rarity of ONB has led to conflicting reports regarding associations of patient age and ONB survival and outcome. Moreover, long-term outcomes of chemotherapy and other treatment modalities are speculated. Here, we aimed to compare survival outcomes across age groups through time and determine associations between treatment modality and survival. In this retrospective population-based study, we analyzed the SEER 2000–2016 Database for patients with ONB tumors. Using Kaplan–Meier survival analysis, a significant effect of age and cancer-specific survival (CSS) was observed; geriatric ONB patients had the lowest CSS overall. Generalized linear models and survival analyses demonstrated that CSS of the pediatric patient population was similar to the geriatric group through 100 months but plateaued thereafter and was the highest of all age groups. Radiation and surgery were associated with increased CSS, while chemotherapy was associated with decreased CSS. GLM results showed that tumor grade, stage and lymph node involvement had no CSS associations with age or treatment modality. Our results provide insight for future investigations of long-term outcomes associated with ONB patient age and treatment modality, and we conclude that survival statistics of ONB patients should be analyzed in terms of trends through time rather than fixed in time.

Abstract
Simple Summary The gene expression profile of ONB defines a group of patients with a dismal prognosis and identifies potentially targetable pathways. Better prognostic stratification may offer new tailored approaches for the treatment and follow-up of ONB. The integration of new therapeutic agents with standard surgical and RT strategies may improve the outcomes in cases with worse prognoses. Furthermore, the ontogenesis of ONB in basal and neural subtypes is mirrored by different transcriptional pathways, paving the way towards different therapeutic approaches. Abstract Olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB) is a rare sinonasal neoplasm with a peculiar behavior, for which limited prognostic factors are available. Herein, we investigate the transcriptional pathways altered in ONB and correlate them with pathological features and clinical outcomes. We analyze 32 ONB patients treated with curative intent at two independent institutions from 2001 to 2019 for whom there is available pathologic and clinical data. We perform gene expression profiling on primary ONB samples and carry out functional enrichment analysis to investigate the key pathways associated with disease-free survival (DFS). The median age is 53.5 years; all patients undergo surgery and a pure endoscopic approach is adopted in the majority of cases (81.2%). Most patients have advanced disease (stages III–IV, 81.2%) and 84.4% undergo adjuvant (chemo)radiotherapy. The median follow-up is 35 months; 11 (26.8%) patients relapse. Clinical characteristics (gender, stage and Hyams’ grade) are not associated with the outcomes. In contrast, TGF-beta binding, EMT, IFN-alpha response, angiogenesis, IL2-STAT5 and IL6-JAK-STAT3 signaling pathways are enriched in patients experiencing recurrence, and significantly associated with shorter DFS. Clustering of transcriptional profiles according to pathological features indicates two distinct molecular groups, defined by either cytokeratin-positive or -negative immunostaining. Definition of the characterizing ONB transcriptomic pathways may pave the way towards tailored treatment approaches.

Abstract
The esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) is characterized as a rare malignant sinonasal tumor of neuroectodermal origin. Its starting point is the olfactory epithelium located in the upper part of the nasal cavities. Different nomenclatures have been proposed, but the most common are "esthesioneuroblastoma" and "olfactory neuroblastoma". ENBs have a bimodal distribution and mainly occur in teenagers, young adults and people aged 50-60. It is a very rare tumor in pediatrics since only around 100 cases have been reported so far. Within ENBs, we can distinguish tumors with different biological behavior ranging from localized forms with slow evolution to aggressive and metastatic forms at onset. In addition, precisely diagnosing undifferentiated tumors and distinguishing them from other etiologies of sinonasal tumors are sometime difficult. Added to its very low incidence, these characteristics make the study of ENB complicated. The standard treatment currently includes broad surgery followed by radiation therapy in localized resectable tumors. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy is indicated in large unresectable tumors and in metastatic forms. However, in certain indications, such as high-grade operable tumors, the role of perioperative chemotherapy remains to be defined. The objective of this analysis is to detail current knowledge regarding ENBs' epidemiological, biological, clinical and radiological characteristics as well as how to manage ENB in young patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) is an uncommon neuroectodermal tumor that originates from the olfactory mucosa and often recurs locally. Distant metastases of ENB have been described, but there are few reports of intramedullary metastases to the spinal cord. CASE DESCRIPTION Here we report a case of a patient presenting with a progressive paraparesis and magnetic resonance imaging findings of multiple drop metastases to thoracic and lumbar regions of the spinal cord, 17 years after diagnosis and treatment for an intracranial ENB with subsequent neck nodal metastases. The dorsal symptomatic lesion was treated with resection, radiotherapy, and adjuvant chemotherapy. The implications of spinal metastases for the clinical prognosis of this disease are discussed, with a review of the few reported cases of spinal ENB metastases in the literature. CONCLUSIONS Through the presentation of this case we hope to further contribute to a better understanding of this rare disease's prognosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Olfactory neuroblastoma, or esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB), is an uncommon sinonasal malignancy arising from olfactory neuroepithelium that is optimally treated with surgical resection. The objective of this study is to determine preoperative predictors of undergoing open versus endoscopic approach for ENB and to investigate significant postoperative survival outcomes between the two surgical approaches. METHODS The National Cancer Database (NCDB) was queried for cases of ENB histology that were treated surgically from 2010 to 2015. Groups were stratified into open or endoscopic approach cohorts. Patient demographics, tumor characteristics, treatment modality, and 5-year overall survival were compared between the two groups using Chi-Square analysis and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Cases were classified as Kadish stage A, B, C, or D based on the "Collaborative Stage-Extension" codes in NCDB. RESULTS Of 533 patients meeting inclusion criteria, 276 (51.8%) patients underwent open, and 257 (48.2%) patients underwent endoscopic surgical approaches. Patients undergoing endoscopic surgery were more likely to be Kadish stages A and B and less likely to be stages C and D (P = .020). Those undergoing endoscopic approach overall had a shorter mean hospital stay postoperatively (3.8 vs. 7.0 days, P < .001). Endoscopic cases had a greater 5-year overall survival (81.9% vs. 75.6%, P = .030); after multivariate regression, there was a trend toward survival benefit to endoscopic surgery that did not reach clinical significance (HR 0.644, [0.392-1.058], P = .083). CONCLUSION Although not statistically significant, there is a trend toward increased overall survival with an endoscopic approach in patients undergoing surgery for ENB as compared to an open approach, regardless of Kadish stage. An endoscopic approach is an adequate alternative to an open approach for the surgical treatment of ENB.

Abstract
Seromucinous hamartoma (SH) is a rarely seen benign polypoid mass of the sinonasal tract. Although the most common presentation symptom is nasal obstruction, most of the patients are asymptomatic. In this paper, the authors present an additional case of SH and discuss its differential diagnosis. A 34-year-old male patient presented with progressive nasal obstruction and serous nasal discharge for several months. A well-defined polypoid mass was detected in the left nasal cavity during the endoscopic assessment. Preoperative biopsy was reported as benign polypoid lesion. The mass was resected via transnasal endoscopic approach and final pathological examination was notified as SH.The SH is an uncommon tumor, originates from nasal septum in the most cases and presents as a well-circumscribed polypoid mass. Radiological imaging modalities and biopsy should be performed to distinguish from the sinonasal malignancies. Complete surgical excision is recommended treatment and recurrence is almost never.

Abstract
AIMS Olfactory neuroblastomas (ONBs) are rare malignant tumours that arise in the nasal vault. To date, the Hyams grade remains the only widely used histological grading system. However, it is based only on morphological criteria, and has not been updated since 1988. The objective of this study was to explore the prognostic potential of the Ki67 proliferation index (PI) and tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in ONB. METHODS AND RESULTS A retrospective study was conducted on a bicentric series of 45 cases. The Ki67 PI was determined by counting at least 1000 nuclei on whole slides. TILs were evaluated with CD20, CD4 and CD8 immunohistochemical markers on whole slides. In this series, Hyams grades I, II, III and IV accounted for 13.4%, 44.4%, 20% and 22.2% of all cases, respectively. The Ki67 PI ranged from 1 to 93; the Ki67 PI was significantly higher in Hyams grade III-IV ONBs than in Hyams grade I-II ONBs (P < 0.0001). A Ki67 PI of ≥25 was associated with poorer survival (P = 0.02). TILs were present in both stromal and intratumoral compartments, but were located predominantly in the stromal component of the tumour. The numbers of intratumoral CD8+ cells/mm2 and CD4+ cells/mm2 were greater in high-grade ONBs than in low-grade ONBs (P = 0.0015 and P = 0.043, respectively). The numbers of T cells/mm2 and B cells/mm2 were not associated with survival, but a CD4/CD8 ratio of >2 was significantly associated with shorter survival (P = 0.04). CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that the Ki67 PI and TILs could be used as prognostic markers, as a potential alternative to the Hyams grade.

Abstract
Olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB) is a rare malignant neoplasm arising from the superior aspect of the nasal vault. Cases are characterised by insidious clinical presentation and high rates of recurrence despite surgical resection and adjuvant radiotherapy. There are a small number of reports showing ONB with divergent epithelial or ganglionic differentiation, and ONB has also been found to coincide with adenocarcinoma. We present a case of mixed ONB with adenocarcinoma. The clinical presentation was unusual, with a tonic-clonic seizure preceded by chronic headache and anosmia. Imaging revealed a mass extending from the olfactory recess of the left nasal cavity through the cribriform plate to the anterior cranial fossa. The pathology demonstrated intraepithelial neuroendocrine cell hyperplasia in the left olfactory groove. This finding provides a unique insight into the cellular origin of this rare tumour, and appears to confirm the theory that ONB arises from neural stem cells in the olfactory neuroepithelium. Despite radical treatment, the patient suffered a distant recurrence within 1 year of treatment, which underlines the aggressive nature of this tumour.

Abstract
Olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB) is a rare intranasal neoplasm in both dogs and humans. Similar clinical presentation and overlapping histologic and immunohistochemical features of ONB with other intranasal neoplasms can make diagnosis and treatment of intranasal neoplasia challenging. Furthermore, in part because of their rarity, there is a lack of reporting on therapeutic regimen for these neoplasms. In humans, initial debulking surgery is usually followed by radiation therapy. Here we report on the histologic, immunohistochemical, and ultrastructural characteristics of canine ONB and report on the clinical progression of cases treated with radiation therapy. In all nine canine ONB examined here, neoplastic cells were arranged in a lobular manner amidst a prominent neurofibrillary matrix and had features consistent with Grade III (high grade) ONB. The neoplastic cells demonstrated positive immunohistochemical staining for TuJ-1, a Class III beta-tubulin neuronal cytoskeletal protein, and variable staining for other markers, including chromogranin, synaptophysin, AE1/AE3 and MAP2. The longest surviving case was treated with a regimen similar to that used in humans, consisting of debulking surgery followed by definitive radiation therapy. Our study found that TuJ-1 is a useful marker for ONB and that radiation therapy, even in cases of advanced disease, may result in prolonged survival.

Abstract
Olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB, also called esthesioneuroblastoma) is a rare malignant tumor of neuroectodermal olfactory cells. We report a case of an undifferentiated ONB with unfavorable histology arising ectopically in the nasopharynx. The patient was a 15-year-old male who presented with a right-sided painful neck mass, nasal obstruction, and weight loss. Awareness of the ectopic ONBs, although exceedingly rare, is important when considering differential diagnoses of sinonasal tumors as treatment and prognosis may differ from other lesions.

Abstract
A 72-year-old female presented with the complaint of declining vision. Workup included magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) which revealed a large enhancing mass extending into the nasal cavity, nasopharynx, and anterior cranial fossa. Computed tomography (CT) imaging revealed extensive calcification. Subsequent endonasal biopsy revealed the tumor to be an unusually calcified esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB). The patient elected for palliative measures. The case provides a basis for a discussion on rare esthesioneuroblastomas and highlights the possibility of extensive calcification on such tumors.

Abstract
Olfactory neuroblastoma/esthesioneuroblastoma (ONB) is an uncommon neuroectodermal neoplasm thought to arise from the olfactory epithelium. Little is known about its molecular pathogenesis. For this study, a retrospective cohort of n = 66 tumor samples with the institutional diagnosis of ONB was analyzed by immunohistochemistry, genome-wide DNA methylation profiling, copy number analysis, and in a subset, next-generation panel sequencing of 560 tumor-associated genes. DNA methylation profiles were compared to those of relevant differential diagnoses of ONB. Unsupervised hierarchical clustering analysis of DNA methylation data revealed four subgroups among institutionally diagnosed ONB. The largest group (n = 42, 64%, Core ONB) presented with classical ONB histology and no overlap with other classes upon methylation profiling-based t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding (t-SNE) analysis. A second DNA methylation group (n = 7, 11%) with CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP) consisted of cases with strong expression of cytokeratin, no or scarce chromogranin A expression and IDH2 hotspot mutation in all cases. T-SNE analysis clustered these cases together with sinonasal carcinoma with IDH2 mutation. Four cases (6%) formed a small group characterized by an overall high level of DNA methylation, but without CIMP. The fourth group consisted of 13 cases that had heterogeneous DNA methylation profiles and strong cytokeratin expression in most cases. In t-SNE analysis, these cases mostly grouped among sinonasal adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and undifferentiated carcinoma. Copy number analysis indicated highly recurrent chromosomal changes among Core ONB with a high frequency of combined loss of chromosome 1-4, 8-10, and 12. NGS sequencing did not reveal highly recurrent mutations in ONB, with the only recurrently mutated genes being TP53 and DNMT3A. In conclusion, we demonstrate that institutionally diagnosed ONB are a heterogeneous group of tumors. Expression of cytokeratin, chromogranin A, the mutational status of IDH2 as well as DNA methylation patterns may greatly aid in the precise classification of ONB.

Abstract
Olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB) is an uncommon neuroendocrine sinonasal cancer associated by many authors to ectopic production of several biologically active substances. We report a case of a 31-year-old male patient who presented with idiopathic syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH). During diagnostic work-up, a CT scan of the head was performed and an ethmoidal ONB was detected. Endoscopical surgery followed by radiotherapy was carried out. Immediately after surgery natraemia levels normalised. Five years later the patient is disease-free. To our knowledge, 17 cases of SIADH associated to ONB have been published. In nine reports, idiopathic SIADH promptly led to the diagnosis of the sinonasal mass as in our clinical case, however, in many reports, correct diagnosis was accomplished months to years later. In young patients with idiopathic inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion, a neuroendocrine malignancy of the sinonasal area must be excluded.

Abstract
Sinonasal tumors with neuroendocrine differentiation form a group of rare heterogeneous neoplasms of neuroectodermal and epithelial origin, consisting of olfactory neuroblastomas and neuroendocrine carcinomas. Because the natural history and biological behavior of this group of tumors vary, the morphological diagnosis coupled with grading/staging is important for prognostication, and the approach to treatment and rehabilitation is multidisciplinary. The identification of molecular abnormalities underlying these tumors is critical to the development of specific targeted therapies and the design of clinical trials.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To provide a comprehensive review of the literature focusing on the recent advances in the diagnosis and management of olfactory neuroblastoma. RECENT FINDINGS Multimodality treatment is usually recommended for the majority of ONB cases. Recent advances in surgical approaches include the evolving role of endonasal endoscopic surgical resection and reconstruction. The introduction of new conformal radiation techniques has improved the outcomes and reduced treatment-related toxicity to important structures such as the eye and the brain. The role of neoadjuvant and adjuvant chemotherapy is yet to be defined. In the last two decades, there have been advances in surgical techniques with endoscopic approaches, either alone or in combination with craniotomy, gradually replacing the open traditional approaches. Prolonged surveillance is recommended for ONB due to late recurrences associated with that tumor. The role of chemotherapy and elective neck irradiation is still controversial and needs more studies to investigate their optimal role.

Abstract
Objectives Evaluation of the changing trends in esthesioneuroblastoma in an Irish context and review of management options nationally to clarify the best current therapeutic approach by comparing with international research on this uncommon malignancy. Design Retrospective review. Setting Tertiary referral center. Participants All patients presenting with esthesioneuroblastoma in Beaumont hospital or on the National Cancer Registry of Ireland between 1994 and 2013. Main Outcome Measures Recurrence-free and overall survival. Results During the study period, 32 cases of esthesioneuroblastoma were diagnosed (0.4 per million per year). Average age at diagnosis was 57 years; however, two cases were under 20. The majority (62.5%) were male. Patients predominantly presented with epistaxis or nasal congestion (73%), while two cases were identified incidentally on radiological investigations. Twenty-seven cases underwent primary surgical management (two post neo-adjuvant treatment) with seventeen requiring bifrontal craniotomy. Twenty-four of these received postoperative radiation therapy. Overall, 5-year survival was 65%. Kadish A/B patients exhibited 100% 5-year disease-specific survival versus 54% in Kadish C/D ( p = 0.011). Hyams grade I/II patients exhibited 75% 5-year disease-specific survival versus 63% in Hyams grade III/IV ( p = 0.005). Patients treated endoscopically exhibited 100% 5-year disease-specific survival versus 51% in those treated via an open approach ( p = 0.102). Conclusions Many controversies exist in the diagnosis and management of this condition. Despite this, results from Irish data are mostly concordant with the international literature. The rising incidence of this disease may represent improved pathological recognition. An increasing number of esthesioneuroblastoma cases are being successfully treated via endoscopic surgery.

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
In most cases of advanced sinonasal and ventral skull base cancer, a multimodal treatment approach provides the best chance for improved outcomes. Depending on the tumor type and extent of disease, systemic chemotherapy has been shown to play an important role in neoadjuvant, concomitant, and adjuvant settings. The lack of randomized trials continues to limit its indications. Further high-quality studies are needed to understand ideal chemotherapeutic regimens and their role and sequential timing in sinonasal and ventral skull base cancer.

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
Canonical Wnt signaling is known to promote proliferation of olfactory stem cells. In order to investigate the effects of a constitutive activation of Wnt signaling in Sox2-positive precursor cells of the olfactory epithelium, we used transgenic mice that allowed an inducible deletion of exon 3 of the Ctnnb1 gene, which is responsible for the phosphorylation and degradation of Ctnnb1 protein. After induction of aberrant Wnt activation by Ctnnb1 deletion at embryonic day 14, such mice developed tumor-like lesions in upper parts of the nasal cavity. We still observed areas of epithelial hyperplasia within the olfactory epithelium following early postnatal Wnt activation, but the olfactory epithelial architecture remained unaffected in most parts when Wnt was activated at postnatal day 21 or later. In summary, our results suggest an age-dependent tumorigenic potential of aberrant Wnt signaling in the olfactory epithelium of mice.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the potential contribution of positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) to help differentiate olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB) from sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma (SNUC). METHODS Following approval by the institutional review board at the Wexner Medical Center at the Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio, a pilot study with retrospective review of patients with biopsy-proven diagnosis of ONB s and SNUC s was conducted. Staging PET/CT scans were reviewed to document the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax). A statistical comparison of SUVmax was performed. RESULTS We identified 13 patients (7 with ONBs and 6 with SNUCs) with mean age 60.2 years who had undergone staging F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (18 F-FDG) PET/CT of the primary tumor at the time of their diagnosis. Mean SUVmax was found to be five-fold higher in SNUC patients (35.63, range 10.8-77.9) than in ONB patients (7.24, range 4.6-10.7) (P ≤ 0.00169). CONCLUSION Maximum standardized uptake value of 18 F-FDG PET/CT can be used to initially discriminate between ONB and SNUC. This finding may prove helpful to guide diagnostic and treatment planning when the histopathologic diagnosis is inconclusive. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 4. Laryngoscope, 2016 127:321-324, 2017.

Abstract
Paraganglioma, ameloblastoma and olfactory neuroblastoma are uncommon primary head and neck tumours. When nodal metastases from these tumours occur, they may present later than and with different imaging characteristics compared with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), demonstrating appearances similar to the primary tumour type rather than features typical of metastatic nodal SCC. We present three cases in which imaging characteristics of nodal metastases in paraganglioma, ameloblastoma and olfactory neuroblastoma mimicked the primary tumour and discuss their implications for clinicoradiological follow-up.
