“…Herein, we present the first largest population‐based study on SNVC to enhance otolaryngologists' clinical understanding of these lesions and provide survival data that may impact management and prognosis. Although prior case reports describe SNVC affecting patients with an age range of 35 to 81, our cohort revealed an average age of 67.4 years with a male predominance. Interestingly, females are more frequently afflicted with VC of the oral cavity .…”

“…Atypical localisation of verrucous carcinoma was described by Tajiri et al, who diagnosed verrucous carcinoma in oesophagus [6]. Ram et al described verrucous carcinoma in the maxillary sinus [7]. Due to the possibility of co-existing changes within the genital area, the described patient was referred to a gynaecological examination, the latter excluded the presence of any genital area pathologies.…”

AbstractVerrucous carcinoma is a slow growing, well demarcated, exophytic variant of squamosus cell carcinoma with a characteristic verrucous presentation. It is a rare tumour and in 75% of cases it is localised in the oral cavity, and sporadically within the tongue. HPV infection is identified in 40% of patients. Good prognosis is characteristic for this tumour, since the 5-year survival is 93%. The authors describe a case of verrucous carcinoma localised in the tongue of a 62-year old patient. The clinical course, diagnostics and proposed treatment was described and discussed with the existing literature data.

Objectives/Hypothesis To explain the processes that lead to the development of tumors in the maxillary and sphenoid sinuses. Study Design A 32‐year review of the world's literature on neoplasms of these two sinuses and a randomized case‐controlled study comparing the normal mucosal architecture of the maxillary to the sphenoid sinus. Methods Analysis of a 32‐year world literature review reporting series of cases of maxillary and sphenoid sinus tumors. Tumors were classified by histological type and separated into subgroups if an individual incidence rate was reported. Histomorphometry of normal maxillary and sphenoid sinus mucosa was performed in 14 randomly selected patients (10 sphenoid and 4 maxillary specimens). Specimens were fixed in 10% formalin, embedded in paraffin, and stained with periodic acid–Schiff (PAS) and hematoxylin. Histomorphometric analysis was performed with a Zeiss Axioscope light microscope (Carl Zeiss Inc., Thornwood, NY) mounted with a Hamamatsu (Hamamatsu Photonics, Tokyo, Japan) color‐chilled 3 charge coupled device digital camera. The images were captured on a 17‐inch Sony (Sony Corp., Tokyo, Japan) multiscan monitor and analyzed with a Samba 4000 Image Analysis Program (Samba Corp., Los Angeles, CA). Five random areas were selected from strips of epithelium removed from each sinus, and goblet and basal cell measurements were made at magnifications ×100 and ×400. Results The literature review revealed that the number and variety of tumors in the maxillary sinus are much greater than those in the sphenoid. The incidence of metastatic lesions to each sinus is approximately equal. No recognized pattern of spread from any particular organ system could be determined. On histomorphometric study there were no statistically significant differences between the sinuses in the concentration of goblet cells, basal cells, or seromucinous glands. Conclusions Factors involved in the pathogenesis of tumors of the maxillary and sphenoid sinuses include differences in nasal physiology, embryology, morphology, and topography. There are no significant histological differences in the epithelium and submucous glands between the two sinuses to explain the dissimilar formation of neoplasms.
