Title : Sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma: A case report and brief literature review
Abstract:
Sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma is a rare malignancy, of the nasal cavity and/ or paranasal sinuses accounting to be less than 1% of all malignancies. This case report will discuss a young male patient diagnosed with poorly differentiated carcinoma in the lateral wall of the nasal cavity, who has subsequently undergone endoscopic excision and adjuvant chemotherapy. He is currently undergoing radiotherapy. The report will further review the literature to find the best management. Overall, it's concluded that multimodality treatment (surgery and chemoradiotherapy) is shown to be most effective but considering chemoradiotherapy toxicity the decision should be made on an individual basis. This also raised the need for research and standardization through evidence-based medicine while considering each patient as an individual and providing personalized care.
