“…As in our systematic review and in the literature, there is variability in treatment modality. Surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, or a combination have all been reported . No established algorithm yet exists for the treatment of sinonasal SCNEC.…”

“…Over the years, SCNEC has been identified by many names including oat cell carcinoma, small cell undifferentiated carcinoma, small cell tumor, neuroendocrine carcinoma, small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma and others . The abbreviations used to identify it are equally numerous—SCNEC, SNEC, SCUC, SCC, SCNC, NEC, and others . This varied nomenclature makes review of the literature of this tumor particularly challenging.…”

“…While radiation therapy, with or without chemotherapy is generally advised, 7 chemotherapy and surgery have also been described. 8,9 Thus, SmCC represents one rare histological subtype of neuroendocrine tumors affecting the sinonasal region. It is locally aggressive and, due to nonspecific features at initial presentation, it presents late.…”

Primary sinonasal small cell carcinomas are extremely rare lesions. We present a case of 29-year-old male patient, who initially presented with recurrent right sided nasal obstruction and occasional epistaxis, but came to medical attention when he developed progressive deterioration of vision in ipsilateral eye. Radiological examination showed a tumor with epicenter in right nasal cavity with extensive local infiltration. The histopathology picture and immunohistochemistry profile of the tumor showed it to be a primary small cell neuroendocrine tumor. Extensive imaging studies revealed no other site of primary. He was treated with induction chemotherapy followed by concomitant chemoradiotherapy. Complete clinical response was seen and the patient has been disease free since last 20 months. The report discusses the diagnostic criteria which differentiates this extremely rare but aggressive tumor from a much more common and more indolent tumor, esthesioneuroblastoma.
