Sinonasal adenoid cystic carcinoma

Abstract

Adenoid cystic carcinoma of the paranasal sinuses is a rare disease, and the ideal treatment paradigm has yet to be defined. The current data suggested that surgical resection with postoperative radiation therapy offers durable local control and compares favorably with historic data. Although local recurrences develop in a significant percentage of patients, survival from this disease exceeds that of other sinonasal malignancies.
