Sarcomas of the sinonasal tract

Abstract

Background

Sinonasal sarcomas are rare and heterogeneous in nature. Continuously collecting data influencing the prognosis is fundamental for optimizing therapeutic assessment of this highly destructive neoplasm.

Methods

We conducted a single-institution retrospective cohort study considering 27 patients with sinonasal sarcoma.

Results

The overall survival (OS) rates for 1 year and 5 years were calculated as 74% and 36%, respectively. Extent of the primary tumor (P = .010), nodal spread (P = .009), and age (P = .004) significantly reduced the OS. Disease-free survival (DFS) was significantly reduced by age (P = .003), extent of the primary (P = .006), nodal (P = .004), and hematogenous (P = .048) spread. Multimodal therapy including surgery improved the OS and DFS rates (P < .05).

Conclusion

Prognosis is poor due to late disease recognition. However, multimodal therapeutic regimens, including surgery, may improve the outcome.
