Abstract
Objectives Ectopic olfactory neuroblastoma is an uncommon manifestation of an already rare neoplasm. We aimed to systematically review the literature for cases of ectopic olfactory neuroblastoma to better characterize this rare disease entity and to present two new case reports. Methods A search of the PubMed and Embase databases was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines to identify English-language articles reporting cases of ectopic olfactory neuroblastoma, published from 1955 through November 2021. Results Sixty-six cases of ectopic olfactory neuroblastoma were identified in 62 articles including the current review. Ectopic olfactory neuroblastoma arose in a wide age range (2-89 years) without significant sex predilection. It occurred most commonly in the ethmoid (25%), maxillary (25%), and sphenoid (16%) sinuses. Seventy-three percent of cases presented with low Hyams grade (I and II). The most common symptoms were nasal obstruction (32%) and epistaxis (32%). Paraneoplastic syndromes were observed in 27% of patients. The most common treatment was surgical resection followed by adjuvant radiotherapy. Overall, 76% of all patients were disease-free at the time of last follow-up. Locoregional recurrences and distant metastases were found in 19 and 5% of cases, respectively. Conclusion This systematic review describes previously reported cases of ectopic olfactory neuroblastoma, a disease entity with poorly understood characteristics. Physicians should consider olfactory neuroblastoma in the differential diagnosis for sinonasal masses, as their ectopic presentation may present considerable diagnostic and therapeutic difficulties. Patients with olfactory neuroblastoma may benefit from long-term follow-up and routine endoscopic examinations for surveillance of ectopic recurrences.

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

Recurrent Esthesioneuroblastoma: Long-Term Outcomes of Salvage Therapy. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:cancers15051506. [PMID: 36900297 PMCID: PMC10000736 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15051506] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2023] [Revised: 02/22/2023] [Accepted: 02/27/2023] [Indexed: 03/08/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) is a rare malignant neoplasm arising from the olfactory epithelium of the cribriform plate. Although survival is excellent with a reported 5-year overall survival (OS) of 82%, recurrence is frequent and occurs in 40-50% of cases. This study investigates the characteristics of ENB recurrence and the subsequent prognosis of patients with recurrence. METHODS The clinical records of all patients diagnosed as having ENB with subsequent recurrence at a tertiary hospital from 1 January 1960 to 1 January 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. Overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were reported. RESULTS A total of 64 out of 143 ENB patients had recurrences. In total, 45 out of 64 recurrences met the inclusion criteria and were included in this study. From these, 10 (22%) had a sinonasal recurrence, 14 (31%) had an intracranial recurrence, 15 (33%) had a regional recurrence, and 6 (13%) had a distal recurrence. The average interval from initial treatment to recurrence was 4.74 years. There were no differences in rates of recurrence with respect to age, sex, or types of surgery (endoscopic, transcranial, lateral rhinotomy, and combined). The time to recurrence was shorter for Hyams grades 3 and 4 compared to Hyams grades 1 and 2 (3.75 years vs. 5.70 years, p < 0.05). Patients with recurrence limited to the sinonasal region had a lower overall primary Kadish stage compared to recurrences beyond the sinonasal region (2.60 vs. 3.03, p < 0.05). A total of 9 (20%) out of 45 patients developed secondary recurrence. Following recurrence, the subsequent 5-year OS and PFS were 63 and 56%, respectively. The mean time to secondary recurrence after treatment of the primary recurrence was 32 months, which was significantly shorter than the time to primary recurrence (32 months vs. 57 months, p = 0.048). The mean age of the secondary recurrence group is significantly older than the primary recurrence group (59.78 years vs. 50.31 years, p = 0.02). No statistically significant differences were observed between the secondary recurrence group and the recurrence group in terms of their overall Kadish stages or Hyams grades. CONCLUSIONS Following an ENB recurrence, salvage therapy appears to be an effective therapeutic option with a subsequent 5-year OS of 63%. However, subsequent recurrences are not infrequent and may require additional therapy.

Abstract
Objective: Although till date no management protocol for esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) has been standardized due to tumor rarity, still multimodality approach shows better treatment outcomes as compared to surgery alone. The objective of this study was to analyze the clinicopathological spectrum of ENB and to correlate treatment response with tumor staging, histopathological grading, and various treatment modalities. Materials and Methods: Twenty-one consecutive patients with biopsy-proven ENB were studied and evaluated for response to treatment in the form of complete tumor resolution. Results were analyzed and correlated with stage and grade of tumor and form of therapy received. Results: There was male preponderance (3.2:1) with age ranging between 7 and 63 years (median of 25 years). Survival rates significantly dropped with increasing tumor stage (63.6% in stages A and B vs. 30% in stages C and D) and grade (100% in Grades 1 and 2 vs. 31.25% in Grades 3 and 4). The recurrence rate was 80% in surgery alone group, which came down to 43.7% if surgery was supplemented with other modalities. In cases where multimodality treatment plan was used, endoscopic procedures fared equally as open surgical procedures. Conclusion: Hyam's grade and Kadish stage are important prognostic indicators of treatment outcome, with survival rates dropping with increasing tumor stage and grade. Multimodality treatment protocols have improved the disease outcome, making endoscopic surgery equivalent to radical surgeries regarding result outcomes and giving other advantages such as better cosmesis, less treatment-related morbidities, decreased hospital stay, and better cost-effectiveness.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) is a rare sinonasal malignancy arising from olfactory neuroepithelium. Recurrence typically occurs locoregionally at the primary site or in the form of cervical metastasis. Delayed local recurrence away from the initial primary site is exceedingly rare. METHODS Retrospective review of 4 patients with histologically confirmed extraprimary local recurrence of ENB was performed with review of the literature. RESULTS All cases initially presented with ENB isolated to the cribriform plate(s) treated with primary surgical resection and adjuvant radiotherapy. The first patient had ENB recurrence 8 years posttreatment involving the right orbit. She later developed metastases to the spine, neck, and mandible requiring composite resection and 4 courses of radiotherapy. The second patient had ENB recurrence of the dorsal septum 9 years posttreatment with cervical metastases requiring septectomy, bilateral neck dissection, and radiotherapy. The third patient had ENB recurrence 7 years posttreatment in the posterior nasopharynx requiring endonasal nasopharyngectomy. Finally, the fourth patient had ENB recurrence 12 years posttreatment in the sphenopalatine foramen, which was endoscopically resected. At the time of this review, all 4 patients were disease free at 32, 21, 4, and 24 months posttreatment follow-ups, respectively. CONCLUSIONS This case series describes the rare phenomenon of delayed extraprimary local recurrence of histologically confirmed ENB. Treatment of extraprimary recurrences, analogous to other forms of ENB, should include primary surgical resection with adjuvant radiotherapy for generally favorable outcomes. Long-term close follow-up based on symptoms, endoscopy, and imaging is essential because of the risk of delayed recurrence.

Abstract
Background Consensus in timing of radiotherapy is yet to be established in esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB). Objective This study was aimed to investigate if planned adjuvant radiotherapy improves tumor control after complete margin negative resection of low Hyams' grade (1 or 2) ENB. Methods A retrospective review of patients with pathologically confirmed negative margin resection of Kadish's stage B or C and Hyams' grade 1 and 2 ENBs was conducted. Seventeen patients meeting the criteria were divided into the following two groups for cohort study: (1) those who underwent planned immediate postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy (IR group) and (2) those who did not (delayed radiotherapy [DR] group). Results The IR group included nine patients (Kadish's stage B in one and stage C in eight; Hyams' grade 1 in two and grade 2 in seven). Mean follow-up was 140.8 months. Seven patients (78%) had disease progression (DP) at a median of 88 months (four with cervical lymph node metastasis [CLNM], one with distant metastasis, and two with both local recurrence and CLNM). One patient experienced frontal lobe abscess. The DR group included eight patients (Kadish's stage B in six and stage C in two; all Hyams' grade 2). Mean follow-up was 123.3 months. Four (50%) patients who developed DP (all local recurrence) were salvaged with surgery and adjuvant radiotherapy at a median of 37.5 months. There was no statistically significant difference in DP rate ( p = 0.23), time to DP ( p = 0.26), or the local tumor control rate ( p = 0.23). Conclusion In our limited cohort, immediate postoperative radiotherapy did not demonstrate superiority in tumor control, although risk of radiotherapy toxicity appears low.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to determine the clinical outcomes and review the management strategies for metastatic esthesioneuroblastoma. METHODS We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis. RESULTS Forty-eight studies totaling 118 patients met inclusion criteria. Chemotherapy in combination with surgery and/or radiation exhibited the best overall survival when compared to monotherapy and no treatment (P < .001). However, most patients (66%) received either monotherapy or no therapy. The number and location of metastases among the 3 treatment groups did not significantly differ (P = .85). Treatment modality remained significantly associated with overall survival on multivariable analysis (P < .001). Platinum-based chemotherapy was most commonly utilized but did not provide a survival benefit when compared with all other regimens (P = .88). CONCLUSION Distant metastases with esthesioneuroblastoma portend a poor prognosis. Chemotherapy in combination with surgery and/or radiation was associated with improved overall survival. Further research into the optimal systemic therapeutic regimen for patients with distant metastases is critical.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS To define the incidence and risk factors of metastatic disease and the effectiveness of salvage therapy in esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB). STUDY DESIGN Retrospective analysis of 57 patients presenting from 1979 through 2009. METHODS Cumulative incidence of neck failure, distant failure, and survival were assessed using the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS Overall survival for all patients was 85% at 5 years and 75% at 10 years. Overall survival was negatively impacted by intracranial tumor extension (P < 0.001), positive resection margins (P = 0.05), and neck metastases (P = 0.017). Neck lymph nodes were not routinely electively irradiated during this time period. Nodal metastases developed in 17% of patients at a median time of 60 months. Kadish stage was not associated with a risk of nodal metastasis (P = 0.78). After treatment for nodal recurrence, locoregional control was achieved in 78% of patients. Of patients developing nodal recurrence, more than half developed distant metastases. The cumulative incidence of distant metastasis was 39% at a median time of 40 months. Patients who presented with Kadish stage C or D had a significantly increased risk of distant failure (P < 0.001). In patients developing nodal (P = 0.017) or distant metastasis (P = 0.001), the probability of survival was significantly decreased. CONCLUSION Regional and distant metastases in patients with esthesioneuroblastoma occur in a delayed fashion and negatively impact survival. Neck nodal recurrence may be a harbinger of distant metastases. At the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, New York, New York, we now treat the majority of ENB patients with elective nodal irradiation. However, the chief obstacle to long-term cure is distant metastases. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 4. Laryngoscope, 126:1556-1561, 2016.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Esthesioneuroblastoma (EN) of the paranasal sinus comprises less than 3% of tumors of in pediatric and adolescent patients [1]. The collective adult literature indicates a critical role for radiotherapy in attaining cure [2], yet pediatric outcome data is limited. Radiation in pediatric patients with EN can cause significant morbidity due to the proximity of critical structures. Proton radiotherapy offers a potential dosimetric benefit that may improve long-term survival and toxicity outcomes in the pediatric population [3]. METHODS We retrospectively identified eight patients treated for EN with proton radiotherapy from 2000-2013. Times to event clinical endpoints are summarized using the Kaplan-Meier methods and are from the date of radiotherapy completion. Toxicities are reviewed and graded according to CTCAE v. 4.0. RESULTS Median follow up was 4.6 years for survivors (range 0.8-9.4 years). The 4 year overall survival was 87.5%. Four of eight patients (one elective) had comprehensive neck radiotherapy. No local or regional failures were observed. Two patients failed distantly with diffuse leptomeningeal disease and intraparenchymal brain metastases, at 0.6 and 1.3 months respectively. Four patients developed radiation related late toxicities including endocrine dysfunction, two cases of grade 2 retinopathy and one case of grade 3 optic neuropathy. CONCLUSIONS In a limited cohort, proton radiotherapy appears to provide excellent locoregional disease control even in those patients with locally advanced disease and intracranial extension. Distant failure determined overall survival in our cohort. Toxicities were acceptable given disease location and extent.

Abstract
PURPOSE The present study evaluated the usefulness of postoperative fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (F-FDG) PET/computed tomography (CT) in the management of olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB). MATERIALS AND METHODS Ten patients (eight men and two women; mean age, 48.5 years) with histologically confirmed ONB who underwent craniofacial resection were retrospectively included in this study. A total of 42 whole-body F-FDG PET/CT scans for postoperative surveillance or restaging were reviewed. The mean time from operation until the PET/CT scan was 42.1 months. We evaluated the F-FDG uptake and the presence of recurrent lesions during the follow-up period and compared the PET/CT results with the results of MRI and clinical examination (endoscopy). RESULTS Seven of the 10 patients had 24 recurrent lesions, and 18 of these recurrent lesions (seven local recurrences, eight cervical lymph node metastases, one intracranial metastasis, and two distant metastases) were F-FDG positive (75.0%). Three local recurrences and three intracranial metastases were false negative and were detected by endoscopy and MRI, respectively. The mean time from operation until recurrence was 51.4 months, and 17 lesions (70.8%) occurred more than 2 years after the initial operation. CONCLUSION Although F-FDG PET/CT is useful for the detection of postoperative recurrences of ONB, long-term follow-up combined with endoscopy and MRI is mandatory.

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

Abstract
BACKGROUND Esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) is a rare malignant neuroendocrine tumor considered to be radiation sensitive. Local recurrence may be treated in a variety of ways, including stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS); however, little information on its effectiveness is available. OBJECTIVE To determine whether SRS is effective in providing local control for recurrent ENB. METHODS This was a retrospective single-institution experience including 109 patients with ENB treated at the Mayo Clinic (1962-2009). Sixty-three patients presented with Kadish stage C disease, and 21 patients developed local recurrence. Of these 21 patients, 7 patients underwent SRS at our institution and an additional patient underwent SRS after transnasal biopsy. Therefore, a total of 8 patients are reported. RESULTS The median age at time of local recurrence was 50 years. All patients had Kadish C disease at initial diagnosis. Six of 8 patients were found to have Hyams grade 3 disease; the remaining 2 patients had grade 2 disease. The median treatment volume was 8.4 cm (mean, 18.9 cm; range, 1.4-76.3 cm), and the median dose to the tumor margin was 15 Gy (mean, 14.4 ± 2.2 Gy; range, 10-18 Gy). Of the 16 treatments, 13 had adequate follow-up to assess treatment response, with 92% achieving local control over a median follow-up of 42 months from the time of SRS. Five lesions decreased in size, 7 lesions stabilized, and only 1 lesion had in-field progression. There were no documented complications secondary to SRS. CONCLUSION SRS appears to be a reasonable and safe option for treatment of intracranial recurrence of ENB.
