BACKGROUND
Maxillary sinus cancer is a rare disease with heterogeneous biologic behavior. The pattern of neurovascular invasion is known to be an important prognosticator in head and neck cancers, but has not been studied in maxillary malignancies.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Patients undergoing surgery-based treatment with curative intent for a malignancy of the maxillary sinus at the Unit of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery of the University of Brescia between November 2000 and October 2018 were included. A description of the characteristics of the patients, tumors, and treatments has been performed along with uni- and multi-variate analysis of prognostic factors. Tumors were classified based on the presence of perineural (P
RESULTS
One hundred-thirty-eight patients were included. Mean age at surgery was 61.0 years. Most patients (60.1%) were affected by non-salivary carcinomas, and most tumors (73.9%) were high-grade cancers. One hundred-seven (77.5%) tumors were classified as pT4. The large majority of patients received bi- or tri-modality treatment. Sixty-three (45.7%) cases were classified as P
CONCLUSIONS
Maxillary cancer is often diagnosed at an advanced stage and in most cases requires a multimodal approach. Perineural and lymphovascular invasion are frequent and have a different impact on prognosis and topographical extension of the tumor.
