Abstract:
Objective:To explore the clinical diagnosis and treatment methods for nasal septum malignancies. Methods:A retrospective study of seven cases of primary nasal septum malignancy was conducted. These cases were treated at the Tianjin First Central Hospital between February 1993 and October 2009. Results:Among the seven cases, one was reported malignant lymphoma, which underwent chemotherapy and radiation therapy;the other six malignant tumors included three cases of adenoid cystic carcinoma, one malignant melanoma, one chondrosarcoma, and one papilloma. Patients were treated by nasal endoscopy, external approach, lip midline incision, overturned facial surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation. During follow-up, which lasted for 2 years to 16 years from time of surgery, two fatalities resulting from recurrence or metastasis were recorded. One of these fatalities occurred after 2 years, and the other was recorded at 3 years and 4 months after surgery. Four patients survived without recurrence. Conclusion:The key treatment for nasal septum malignancies was one-time radical resection. Combined postoperative treatment and follow-up should be conducted.
