Abstract:
Objective To investigate the treatment outcome of primary mucosal melanoma of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses and the role of radiotherapy in the treatment of this disease .Methods The clinical data of 52 patients with primary mucosal melanoma of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses who were admitted to our hospital from 2001 to 2014 were analyzed retrospectively.Among these patients, 18 received surgery alone, 31 received surgery combined with radiotherapy ( 24 received surgery and postoperative radiotherapy and 7 received preoperative radiotherapy and surgery ) , and 3 received radiotherapy alone.The surgery+radiotherapy group and the surgery group were matched using propensity score matching.Results The median follow-up was 59 months.The 5-year local control ( LC), distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS), disease-free survival (DFS), and overall survival (OS) of all patients were 49%, 48%, 22%, and 45%, respectively.After matching, the surgery+radiotherapy group had a significantly higher LC than the surgery group (88%vs.43%, P=0.028), but the two groups had similar 5-year DMFS (67%vs.57%, P=0.955), 5-year DFS (58%vs.24%, P=0.131), and 5-year OS (67%vs. 67%, P=0.727 ) .The negative margin rates in the preoperative radiotherapy+surgery subgroup and the surgery+postoperative radiotherapy subgroup were 100%and 50%, respectively ( P=0.004) .Conclusions Surgery combined with radiotherapy can improve the LC rate in patients with primary mucosal melanoma of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses, and preoperative radiotherapy can increase the negative margin rate.
