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.

Lee J, Leonard J, Walz P. The development of a pediatric skull base team: how, where and why? Curr Opin Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg 2023; 31:430-437. [PMID: 37712820 DOI: 10.1097/moo.0000000000000930] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 09/16/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The purpose of this review is to describe the development of pediatric skull base surgical techniques and illustrate the advantages of pediatric endonasal skull base surgery (ESBS) when applied in appropriate settings. Additionally, this manuscript endeavors to define the pediatric skull base team components, highlight circumstances amenable to the development of a pediatric skull base surgery team, and describe the relative advantages of independent pediatric teams versus incorporation with adult skull base practices. RECENT FINDINGS Multiple series published within the last decade have described the application of ESBS to the pediatric population, demonstrating adoption of these interventions in many academic centers. Most series include relatively small numbers of patients, highlighting the relative infrequency of anterior skull base pathology in the pediatric patient. Given the relatively low volume and high technical demands of this skillset, general guidelines for the timing, suggested training, and volume necessary to support a pediatric skull base team are offered. SUMMARY The interest in pediatric ESBS continues to expand though case volumes may limit maintenance of skills in lower volume centers. The development of a dedicated pediatric skull base team in areas where sufficient volume exists facilitates concentration of expertise and interdisciplinary relationships necessary to provide the highest level of care. Collaborating with adult skull base teams can enhance the pediatric team experience, increasing exposure to complex surgical planning and radiologic nuances. However, a pediatric-focused skull base team can tailor treatment to meet the specific psychosocial and developmental needs of children.

Progress and emerging strategies to preserve function in the treatment of sinonasal cancer. Head Neck 2023; 45:2955-2966. [PMID: 37740399 DOI: 10.1002/hed.27510] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/15/2023] [Revised: 07/27/2023] [Accepted: 08/27/2023] [Indexed: 09/24/2023] Open
Abstract
The sinonasal structures and their adjacent organs host several functions including vision, olfaction, nasal respiration and filtration, secretory immunity, facial expression, articulation, and oral deglutition. We reviewed the current evidence supporting functional preservation in sinonasal cancer treatment. Primary surgery with or without adjuvant modalities continues to be the standard of care for sinonasal cancer. Unfortunately, functional compromise remains a dominant negative feature of this approach. More recently, through advances in therapeutic techniques and improved understanding of the relevant tumor biology, treatments aimed at preserving function and cosmesis are emerging. The evidence for such progress involving minimal access surgery, surgical reconstruction for rehabilitation, new techniques in radiation therapy, inclusion of systemic and locally enhanced chemotherapy, and therapeutic agents based on molecular targets are highlighted. This multi-prong approach bodes well for future patients with sinonasal cancer to undergo successful treatment that includes maximal preservation of associated functions.

Interdisciplinary challenges and aims of flap or graft reconstruction surgery of sinonasal cancers: What radiologists and radiation oncologists need to know. Front Oncol 2022; 12:1013801. [PMID: 36203460 PMCID: PMC9530815 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.1013801] [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: 08/07/2022] [Accepted: 08/25/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
In sinonasal cancer surgery, a fundamental challenge is to understand the postoperative imaging changes after reconstruction. Misinterpretation of post-operative imaging may lead to a misdiagnosis of tumor recurrence. Because radiotherapy planning is based on imaging, there are many gaps in knowledge to be filled in the interpretation of postoperative imaging to properly define radiotherapy tumor volumes in the presence of flaps. On the other hand, radiotherapy may be responsible for tissue fibrosis or atrophy, the anatomy of the reconstructed region and the functional outcomes may change after radiotherapy compared to surgery alone. This narrative review illustrates the interdisciplinary aims and challenges of sinonasal reconstructive surgery using flaps or grafts. It is particularly relevant to radiologists and radiation oncologists, at a time when intensity modulated radiotherapy and proton therapy have the potential to further contribute to reduction of morbidity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the study is to assess safety, effectiveness, and potential advantages of CO₂ fiber laser during endoscopic endonasal surgery for the resection of sinonasal neoplasms. We present text, images, and videos to show our experience with this new device recently introduced in endoscopic endonasal surgery and as a potential tool for educational purpose. METHODS Six patients affected by benign or malignant sinonasal tumors who underwent endoscopic resection between January and May 2021 were enrolled in the study. Surgical approach was conducted via standardized centripetal endonasal technique. During the surgery we evaluated instrument ergonomics, quality in section on both healthy tissue and tumor, coagulation, and bleeding control from major vessels. RESULTS In our experience, CO₂ fiber laser has proved to have good ergonomics, as well as to be a safe and effective tool for the resection of both neoplastic and healthy tissues. Cauterization was efficient only in vessels with average diameter lower than 1 cm. Prolonged procedural time, costs, and necessity of learning-curve and expertise are possible drawbacks. CONCLUSION Co2-fiber laser is an effective tool which can aid the surgeon during endoscopic endonasal approach to sinonasal neoplasms.

Abstract
Surgery plays an important role in the treatment of sinonasal cancer. Many surgical approaches have been described, including open, endoscopic, or combined approaches. The choice is based on several criteria: general criteria related to the oncological results and morbidity of each technique, specific criteria related to the tumor (tumor extensions, tumor pathology), the patient, or the surgeon himself. The aims of this review are (i) to provide a complete overview of the surgical techniques available for the management of sinonasal malignant tumors, with a special focus on recent developments in the field of transnasal endoscopic surgery; (ii) to summarize the criteria that lead to the choice of one technique over another. In particular, the oncological outcomes, the morbidity of the different techniques, and the specificities of each histologic subtype will be discussed based on a comprehensive literature review.

Abstract
Endonasal endoscopic surgery (EES) has been applied to the management of sinonasal (SN) tumors based on recent advances in endoscopic surgical techniques and technologies over the past three decades. EES has been mainly indicated for benign tumors and less aggressive malignant tumors. Notwithstanding this, EES has been gradually adopted for squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), which is the most common histology among SN malignancies. However, an analysis of the outcomes of EES for patients with SCC is difficult because most articles included SCC a wide range of different tumor histologies. Therefore, we herein review and clarify the current status of EES focusing on SCC from an oncological perspective. The oncologic outcomes and the ability to achieve a histologically complete resection are similar between endoscopic and open approaches in highly selected patients with SN-SCC. Surgical complications associated with EES are likely similar for SN-SCC compared to other sinonasal malignancies. The indications for a minimally invasive approach such as EES in the management of patients with SN-SCC should be stricter than those for less aggressive malignant tumors because of the aggressive nature of SCC. Also, it is important to achieve negative surgical margins with EES in patients with SCC. We believe that the indications for EES for SN-SCC are widening due to advances in diagnostic imaging, and endoscopic surgical techniques and technologies. However, while expanding the indications for EES for SN-SCC we must carefully confirm that the outcomes support this strategy.

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
Endonasal Skull Base Surgery has some advantages over conventional methods; however, some issues such as the need to replace the endoscope due to the fixed view, and possible invasiveness during insertion make the procedure difficult. To solve these problems, this paper proposes an active endoscope mechanism with several benefits. First, its variable direction of view can cover the wide ranges. Second, it provides a forward view, lessening the danger of damaging critical tissues while the endoscope is being inserted. Third, it can change the direction of view within a very small radius of 6.5 mm, so it can be used in a small cavity and work together with other surgical tools. We have designed the endoscope, which has 4 mm diameter. It is a simple tilting and rotation mechanism of 2-degree of freedom (DOF). It implements kinematics control to make it intuitive to operate. The image sensor attached to the distal end is fixed mechanically so that the image orientation is preserved in the direction of gravity. The experiments showed the user could intuitively control the endoscope with the master device and observe the target without swapping the endoscope. Future tests will examine clinical aspects and combination work with surgical instruments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Microsurgery is generally performed in narrow spaces with limited movement. Endoscopes that allow for angle changes have been developed using elastic materials, but they require a large bending space. We propose a new endoscope with a small sweep volume for angle changes. METHODS We fabricated a prototype with a thumb-operated joystick. The image sensor is attached to the tooltip. The image signal is input to a motor control board which computes inverse kinematics and transforms it into joint angle values. Each axis is positioned according to these values. RESULTS The tooltip sweeping volume was 104 mm3 . Surgeons at the Asan Medical Center used our endoscope to obtain images of the biceps tendon and subscapularis joints of a cadaver. CONCLUSION Currently, a low-resolution image sensor is attached to endoscope tooltips. In the future, we will develop a high-resolution image module equipped with an ultra-small complementary metal oxide semiconductor sensor.

The role of endoscopic resection for selected patients with sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma. Auris Nasus Larynx 2020; 48:131-137.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Despite of rapid advances in endoscopic surgery, the gold standard for sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma (SNSCC) surgery has remained the open approach with en-block resection due to the aggressive nature of SNSCC, including frequent recurrence and high mortality rate. For that reason, few studies have focused on SNSCC treated by endoscopic surgery alone. The objective of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of endoscopic surgery for patients with SNSCC. METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed for 15 consecutive SNSCC patients who underwent endoscopic surgery without an open approach. We carefully selected patients whose tumor attachment sites could be fully visualized and completely resected through an endonasal approach. RESULTS Of the fifteen patients, 4 patients (27%) were diagnosed with T1, 7 (47%) with T2, 4 (27%) with T3, and no patients with T4a or T4b disease. Four of the 15 (27%) patients showed positive surgical margins. The 5-yr overall survival, disease-specific survival, and local control rate was 72.4%, 79.6%, and 92.9%, respectively. The 5-yr disease-specific survival for T1, T2, and T3 disease was 100% and 75% and 75%, respectively. Patients with negative surgical margins had a better disease-specific survival rate than did those with positive surgical margins (p = 0.0253). CONCLUSION Endoscopic surgery for patients with SNSCC appears to afford an effective method in selected cases. The achievement of negative surgical margins with a good view of the tumor attachment site was considered to be critical to the management of SNSCC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe a novel bilaterally pedicled pericranial flap for anterior cranial base reconstruction after removal of complex frontobasal cancers extending to the frontal region, thus precluding the use of standard reconstructive techniques. METHODS In selected oncologic cranial base surgeries, the use of the standard galea frontalis pericranial flap for reconstructive purposes may be precluded by tumor infiltration. In such cases, dura mater reconstruction and exclusion of frontal sinuses from the intracranial space can be performed using a large superficial temporal artery bilaterally pedicled pericranial flap obtained from both temporoparietal regions. Surgical technique, indication, contraindication, complications, and degree of resection are recorded to evaluate the efficacy of this surgical method. RESULTS A 48-year-old man affected by a recurrence of frontobasal squamous cell carcinoma was surgically treated by combined transcranial and endoscopic endonasal resection. A large pericranial flap pedicled bilaterally on the parietal branches of the superficial temporal artery was obtained, transposed anteriorly, carefully watertight sutured to the dural defect, and used to exclude cranialized frontal sinuses as well. The reconstruction was successful, and the patient was discharged home on the tenth postoperative day without any complications and/or development of cerebrospinal fluid leak. Contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging 3 months after surgery was clear from disease with consolidated surgical outcomes. CONCLUSIONS This novel pericranial flap seems to be easily obtained and effective for anterior cranial base reconstruction when the use of a traditional galea frontalis flap is precluded for oncologic reasons and there are concerns for the possible development of contaminations and cerebrospinal fluid leaks.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endoscopic endonasal anterior skull base malignant sinonasal tumor resection and reconstruction remains a challenge. We describe our septal flip flap (SFF) reconstruction, a new surgical technique for repairing anterior skull base defects and report our outcomes. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the clinical data of 24 patients who underwent skull base reconstruction using a SFF following endoscopic resection with transnasal craniectomy. We raise the SFF from the contralateral nasal septum based on the septal branches of the anterior and posterior ethmoidal arteries; the SFF is then rotated laterally for anterior skull base reconstruction after transnasal resection with craniectomy. RESULTS The SFF was used for multiple tumor types including, most commonly, intestinal-type adenocarcinoma, followed by olfactory neuroblastoma, squamous cell carcinoma, sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma, and other types. All of the cases had either preoperative or postoperative radiation therapy. All flaps remained viable postoperatively. Postoperatively, nasal crusting was significantly reduced with faster healing of the surgical cavity. CONCLUSIONS The SFF adds to the clinical armamentarium the opportunity to provide vascularized mucosal coverage extending from the frontal recess back to the planum sphenoidalis. The use of SFF requires careful consideration when dealing with paranasal sinus cancers so as not to infringe oncologic principles.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze outcomes and prognostic factors of sinonasal nonsalivary non-intestinal-type adenocarcinoma (n-ITAC.) METHODS: A retrospective review of 22 consecutive patients with n-ITAC was performed. RESULTS Average follow-up time was 77 months. The 5-year overall survival and disease-specific survival were 95.2%. The 5-year overall survival and disease-specific survival were 100% for pT1, pT2, and pT3 tumors and 83.3% for pT4a and pT4b tumors; 100% for G1 tumors and 87.5% for G3 tumors; and 100% for tumors with negative surgical margin and 50% for tumors with positive surgical margin. Stage, grade, and surgical margins were independent prognostic factors. Adjuvant radiotherapy was performed for high-grade and high-stage tumors. CONCLUSIONS Surgery followed by radiotherapy has remained a mainstay for management of n-ITAC, and the endoscopic transnasal approach, when correctly planned and indicated, is the surgery of choice. Adjuvant radiotherapy is recommended in cases of high-stage (T3 and T4) and high-grade tumors. n-ITAC is associated with a favorable outcome. High grade, pT4 stage, and positive surgical margins are independent negative prognostic factors.

Abstract
Combined transcranial and endoscopic endonasal approaches remain useful in the treatment of ventral skull base malignancies. The extended bifrontal transbasal approach provides wide access to the anterior ventral skull base and paranasal sinuses without transfacial incisions. In more extensive lesions, the bifrontal transbasal approach can then be combined with an endoscopic endonasal approach (EEA) from below. This article reviews the indications, surgical technique, and operative nuances of combined transbasal and EEA (cranionasal) approaches for the surgical management of ventral skull base malignancies.

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
OBJECTIVE Data from several centers worldwide have demonstrated that transnasal endoscopic surgery performed with or without a transcranial approach is capable of achieving radical resection of selected sinonasal malignancies. We report our experience with endoscopic management of sinonasal cancers, with emphasis on naso-ethmoidal malignancies encroaching on the anterior skull base. METHODS Major series reporting results concerning the endoscopic endonasal approach with or without craniectomy for treatment of sinonasal and anterior skull base cancers were reviewed. Preoperative work-up, indications and exclusion criteria, surgical techniques, postoperative management, and adjuvant therapy are reported. RESULTS In the 2 largest series analyzed, the most common malignancies were adenocarcinoma (28%), olfactory neuroblastoma (14.5%), and squamous cell carcinoma (13.5%). The 5-year disease-specific survival rate ranged from 81.9%-87%, with no major differences in the mean follow-up time (34.1 months vs. 37 months). CONCLUSIONS Endoscopic endonasal resection performed with or without a transcranial approach, when properly planned and in expert hands, has an accepted role with precise indications in the surgeon's armamentarium for the treatment of sinonasal and skull base malignancies.

Abstract
Objectives To describe the endoscopic transnasal approach to the infratemporal fossa (ITF) and upper parapharyngeal space (UPS) and to analyze the indications and outcomes of this surgical technique in the management of the tumors localized in this critical area. Study Design Case series with chart review. Setting Tertiary-care referral center. Patients and Methods Retrospective review of patients with benign and malignant tumors arising in or extending to the ITF and UPS, treated from 2002 to 2012 at a single institute. The tumors were surgically resected using an endoscopic endonasal transpterygoid transmaxillary approach. Results Thirty-seven consecutive patients with benign tumors (20 juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibromas, 2 extracranial trigeminal Schwannomas, 2 meningiomas, 1 cavernous hemangioma) and nonmetastatic malignant tumors (2 adenoid-cystic carcinoma, 1 mucoepidermoid carcinoma, 1 squamous cell carcinoma, 1 adenocarcinoma, 1 recurrence of chondrosarcoma, and 6 recurrences of undifferentiated carcinoma of nasopharyngeal type) were treated with curative intent. A gross-total resection was achieved in 35 of 37 patients. Major complications were observed in 1 case (intraoperative internal carotid artery blowout). Postoperatively, 8 patients received some form of adjuvant treatment. Mean follow-up was 30 months for malignancies and 60 months for benign tumors. All patients are now alive without recurrences. Stable intracranial persistence of disease was reported in 2 cases (1 meningioma and 1 adenoid-cystic carcinoma). Conclusion The purely endoscopic endonasal technique may provide a minimally invasive and safe approach to radically resect selected tumors involving the ITF and UPS. Larger case series and longer follow-up are needed to validate the reproducibility and efficacy of this technique.

Abstract
Successful outcomes of endoscopic approaches to benign sinonasal tumors have launched interest in expanding its use for sinonasal malignancy. Because of the heterogeneity and rarity of sinonasal malignancy, evidence for clinical outcomes of endoscopic approaches versus traditional craniofacial resection is low. Using the Oxford Center for Evidence-based Medicine guidelines, we present the existing evidence comparing both techniques for a variety of sinonasal malignancies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study is to present our experience in treating paediatric sinonasal and skull base malignancies with exclusively endonasal endoscopic approach and measure its feasibility. METHODS This study is a retrospective review of seven patients under age of 19 years who have sinonasal and skull base malignancies and treated with endoscopic endonasal approach. The main outcome measures are the surgical resection, complications, survival rate, recurrence and gross facial growth. RESULTS Radical tumour resection was achieved in all cases with negative margins; no major complications were observed. Mean follow-up was 65 months and no evidence of recurrences. Facial growth assessment showed no gross changes. CONCLUSION In selected cases, endoscopic endonasal approach of paediatric sinonasal and skull base malignancies could be an alternative approach. Despite of our few cases, it showed a feasibility of this technique with satisfactory oncological control. A further collaborative study with larger number is needed to have more valid conclusion.

Abstract
The objective of the study is to present our multicentric experience on intraorbital lesions managed by means of an endonasal endoscopic approach. The study design used was multi-institutional retrospective review. We collected data on 16 intraorbital medially-located lesions, all managed by means of an endonasal route, treated in four different skull base centers. We retrospectively reviewed the technical details, complications, histology, and general outcome. The endoscopic endonasal approach was effective in removing completely intraorbital extra-intraconal tumors in 8 cases, in performing biopsies for histological diagnosis in 6 intraorbital intraconal tumors, and in draining 1 extraconal abscess. No major complications were observed; in particular, there was no optic nerve damage. Minor, temporary complications (diplopia) were seen in 3 cases; only 2 patients experienced a permanent diplopia related to medial rectus muscle impairment, in 1 case associated with enophthalmos. Our preliminary multi-centric clinical experience suggests that medially located intraorbital lesions, and in particular the infero-medial ones, can be successfully and safely managed by such an approach. The well-known advantages of the endoscopic techniques, namely the lack of external scars, less bleeding, shorter hospital stay, and fewer complications, are confirmed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Because of a better understanding of the anatomy from an endoscopic perspective, the acquisition of surgical experience, and concomitant technological advances, endoscopic resection of the anterior skull base (ASB) and overlying dura has now become a reality, opening new possibilities in the management of sinonasal malignancies. Here, the authors review a series of 62 patients, the largest reported to date, who underwent endoscopic transnasal craniectomy (ETC) and endoscopic dural repair for the management of selected sinonasal malignancies. Special emphasis is placed on the surgical technique, technical tricks, choice of materials for endoscopic dural repair, postoperative management, and complications. METHODS From 2004, 62 patients underwent ETC at two referral hospitals, which extended anteroposteriorly from the frontal sinus to planum sphenoidale and laterolaterally from the nasal septum to the lamina papyracea (unilateral resection, n = 28; 45%) or from papyracea to papyracea (bilateral resection, n = 34; 55%). Duraplasty with a three-layer technique was performed using the iliotibial tract and fat tissue. RESULTS The most frequent histotypes were adenocarcinoma (58%) and olfactory neuroblastoma (22%). Forty-five (73%) patients were previously untreated. The incidence of early (T1-2, Kadish A-B) and advanced (T3-4, Kadish C) tumors was similar. The complication rate was 15%, mostly cerebrospinal fluid leaks (13%). Its prevalence did not correlate with patient age, medical comorbidities, previous treatment, presence of ASB involvement, or whether ETC was mono- or bilateral, but tended to correlate with advanced tumor stage, dural involvement, and the period of treatment. After a mean follow-up of 17.5 months (range, 1-54 months), 58 (94%) patients had no evidence of disease. CONCLUSION In correctly selected patients with sinonasal tumors involving the ASB, ETC offers a less invasive alternative than resection by an open approach with an acceptable morbidity.

Abstract
AIM To report our experience with endoscopic, endonasal management of sinonasal haemangiopericytoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS Retrospective review of the medical records of 10 patients undergoing endoscopic, endonasal surgery for sinonasal haemangiopericytoma of the nose and paranasal sinuses, between 1997 and 2008. RESULTS Five men and five women were included. Their mean age at surgery was 59 years. All patients underwent endoscopic, endonasal resection of their tumour. Major post-operative complications were encountered in only one patient (stroke). Local recurrence was diagnosed in only one patient (10 per cent), who subsequently underwent a combined resection (endoscopic and external) with orbital exenteration. CONCLUSIONS Sinonasal haemangiopericytomas are rare tumours that are usually benign. The mainstay of treatment is wide surgical excision with free resection margins. Nowadays, the great majority of patients can be treated using a purely endoscopic, endonasal approach.

Abstract
Endoscopic techniques have undergone tremendous advancement in the past years. From the management of phlogistic pathologies, we have learned to manage skull base lesions and even selected intracranial diseases. Current anatomical knowledge plus computer-aided surgery has enabled surgeons to remove large lesions in the paranasal sinuses extending beyond the boundaries of the sinuses themselves. In this sense, management of benign diseases via endoscopic routes is nowadays well accepted whilst the role of endoscopic techniques in sinonasal malignancies is still under investigation. Nowadays, it is possible to tackle different pathologies placed not only in the ventral skull base, but also extended laterally (infratemporal fossa and petrous apex) and even, in really selected cases, within the orbit. The ability to resect and reconstruct has improved significantly. At the moment, the improvement in surgical techniques, like the four-handed technique, has rendered endoscopic procedures capable of managing complex pathologies, according the same surgical principles of the open approaches. From now onwards, frameless neuronavigation, modular approaches, intraoperative imaging systems and robotic surgery are and will be an increasingly important part of endonasal surgery, and they will be overtaken by further evolution.

Abstract
Background The increasing expertise in the field of transnasal endoscopic surgery recently has expanded its indications to include the management of sinonasal malignancies. We report our experience with the endoscopic management of nasoethmoidal malignancies possibly involving the adjacent skull base. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed of patients treated by an exclusive endoscopic approach (EEA) or a cranioendoscopic approach (CEA) from 1996 to 2006 managed by two surgical teams at the Departments of Otorhinolaryngology of the University of Brescia, and the University of Pavia/Insubria-Varese, Italy. Results One-hundred eighty-four patients were considered eligible for the present analysis. An EEA was performed in 134 patients and the remaining 50 patients underwent the CEA. The most frequent histotypes encountered were adenocarcinoma (37%), squamous cell carcinoma (13.6%), olfactory neuroblastoma (12%), mucosal melanoma (9.2%), and adenoid cystic carcinoma (7.1%). Overall, 86 (46.7%) patients received some form of adjuvant treatment. The patients were followed up for a mean of 34.1 months (range, 2-123 months). The 5-year disease-specific survival was 91.4 ± 3.9% and 58.8 ± 8.6% (p = 0.0004) for the EEA and CEA group, respectively. Conclusion To the best of our knowledge, this is the largest series reported to date of malignant tumors of the sinonasal tract and adjacent skull base treated with pure endoscopic or cranioendoscopic techniques. A 5-year disease-specific survival of 91.4% and 58.8% for the EEA and the CEA groups, respectively, seem to indicate that endoscopic surgery, when properly planned and in expert hands, may be a valid alternative to standard surgical approaches for the management of malignancies of the sinonasal tract.
