Abstract
|
|
|
Background and Objectives : This study was designed to evaluate the influence of
several different prognostic factors in determining survival in patients treated for
carcinoma of maxillary sinus. We performed this study to investigate the prognostic
factors and 5-year survival rate of maxillary carcinoma.
Materials and Methods : A retrospective study of l08 patients with carcinoma of
maxillary sinus treated between January 1981 and December 1991 was undertaken.
Hospital charts were reviewed collecting demographic, clinical, radiographic, and
pathologic finding, which were correlated with treatment and subsequent follow-up. This
results included 64 men and 44 women with an average of 54.6 year-old. The most
commonly encountered histologic type was squamous cell carcinoma.
Results : The most significant predictors of poor prognosis were advanced T stage
and involvement of orbit and neck node metastasis. Involvement of pterygopalatine fossa
invasion was not associated with poor prognosis.
Conclusion : In spite of advance in diagnostic technique and surgical therapy,
maxillary sinus cancer is poor prognostic disease. Diagnosis at an earlier stage is
associated with improved outcome.
