Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the multimodal treatment outcomes and patterns of treatment failure in esthesioneuroblastoma at a single institution. Methods One hundred and twelve patients who were newly diagnosed with esthesioneuroblastoma but no distant metastasis in our institution from 1979 to 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. The treatment modes, outcomes, and patterns of treatment failure in these patients were analyzed. According to the modified Kadish staging system, the numbers of patients with stage A, B, C, and D esthesioneuroblastoma were 1, 23, 60, and 28, respectively. Fifty?one patients received surgery and postoperative radiotherapy with or without chemotherapy;forty?six patients received radiotherapy with or without chemotherapy;eleven patients received preoperative radiotherapy and surgery with or without chemotherapy;three patients received surgery with or without chemotherapy; one patient received chemotherapy alone. The survival rates were calculated using the Kaplan?Meier method. Results In all patients, the 5?year sample size was 44, and the 5?year overall survival ( OS ) and disease?free survival ( DFS) rates were 66?4% and 54?7%, respectively. The 5?year OS and DFS rates were 91% and 82% in patients who received preoperative radiotherapy and surgery with or without chemotherapy, 80% and 66% in patients who received surgery and postoperative radiotherapy with or without chemotherapy, and 46% and 37% in patients who received radiotherapy with or without chemotherapy. Three patients treated with surgery alone had relapse of the disease;one patient treated with palliative chemotherapy survived 6 months. Treatment failed in 47 ( 42%) out of 112 patients. In patients with failed treatment, 53% had distant metastasis as the first pattern of treatment failure, 36% had locoregional relapse, and 11% had concurrent distant metastasis and locoregional relapse. Conclusions Surgery combined with radiotherapy is still the recommended multimodal treatment regimen for esthesioneuroblastoma. The multimodal treatment achieves satisfactory local?regional control rate and treatment outcomes in the treatment of esthesioneuroblastoma. The major pattern of treatment failure is distant metastasis.
