“…Interestingly, there are two very rare cases in literature regarding breast cancer metastasis to the paranasal sinus in a man (5,6) . The mean age at the time of discovery of the paranasal metastasis was 60 years, ranging from 34 -83 (n = 39).…”

Background: Metastasis of breast carcinoma to the paranasal sinus is rare. There is hardly any accumulated data to guide therapy and counseling. Methods and results: We report two cases and performed a systematic review. To date, 40 other cases have been reported since 1939 with a median survival of only 6 months after first presentation. The median time between diagnosis of the primary tumor and discovery of the paranasal metastasis was 33 months. Only nine cases of solitary paranasal sinus metastasis could be identified, having the same poor prognosis. Overall, no indicators could be found for a better prognosis, not even the type of treatment (if any). Conclusions: Paranasal metastases of breast carcinoma are rare but lethal. Treatment should be aimed at palliation only. Extra care should be taken when patients with a history of breast cancer present with complaints of headaches, facial pain, visual impairment or (unilateral) nasal obstruction.

“…Les indicateurs pronostiques les plus importants sont le stade au moment du diagnostic et l'état des ganglions lymphatiques [5]. Le pronostic du cancer du sein chez l'homme est plus mauvais que chez la femme en raison du stade tardif au moment du diagnostic et de l'association de comorbidités liées à l'âge [5,34,35]. L'incidence élevée des lésions cutanées au cours du cancer du sein chez l'homme au Maroc souligne le rôle du dermatologue dans le diagnostic de cette affection.…”

Context: Breast cancer affects more than 2 million women a year worldwide. Improved treatments have made it possible to increase survival rates with more and more patients having time to develop secondary locations. Nasosinus metastases from this cancer are rare. Two recently treated breast cancer patients developed metastases to the sphenoidal and maxillary sinuses. These cases gave rise to an examination of the incidence of this disease, its diagnosis, the therapeutic means envisaged and the fate of these patients. Method: We report the diagnostic and therapeutic data of two patients suffering from breast cancer and presenting metastases at the nasosinus level, with a focus on the interest of radiotherapy in palliative care. Results: The two patients aged 56 and 60 presented in the course of their breast cancer secondary localizations in the sphenoidal and maxillary sinus confirmed by endoscopy and histology. All the cases presented massive lesions associated with other secondary bone locations in particular. After local radiotherapy and systemic chemotherapy treatment, one patient died 5 months after her diagnosis and the other was alive 16 months later. Conclusion: Nasal and sinus metastases from breast cancer are rare and have a poor prognosis as disseminated disease, they do not respond well to conventional systemic therapies even if palliative radiotherapy allows local control.
