NASAL AND SINUS MALIGNANCY
Nodal Failures
Radical neck dissection is considered the standard of care for management of nodal fail­ures. e rationale for performing radical neck dissection instead of a lesser operation is that there are usually multiple involved nodes, the incidence of extracapsular involvement is high (< 70%), and further radiation may not be possible.

66. NASAL AND SINUS MALIGNANCY
Sinonasal malignancies are an uncommon heterogeneous group of tumours. ey are oen misdiagnosed as benign conditions. Extension of these tumours into the orbit, brain, and infratemporal fossa causes profound symptoms, with signicant implications for morbidity and prognosis. Surgery and radiotherapy remain the mainstays of treatment. e prognosis is relatively poor compared with that for tumours at other head and neck subsites.
Epidemiology
Rare, with incidence of 0.5–1 per 100,000 per year.
0.2–0.8% of all malignancies.
<3% of upper aerodigestive tract neoplasms.
Predominately develop in the h and sixth decades of life.
Incidence in men is twice the incidence in women.
e misconception that certain races are more susceptible than others to sinus malig-
nancies is explicable by occupational exposure to carcinogens.
Incidence of Sinonasal Malignancy by Subsite
Maxillary sinus—the most common (55%)
Nasal cavities (35%)
Ethmoid sinuses (9%)
Fronta l si nu ses (1%)
Sphenoid sinuses (1%)
Aetiology
Multiple occupational exposures to carcinogenic compounds have been identied, including (but not limited to):
Hard wood—adenocarcinoma
So wood—squamous cell carcinoma (SCC)
African mahogany
Nickel—SCC
Smoking
Chemicals (e.g. chromium, polycyclic hydrocarbons, aatoxin)

Local Extension
Sinonasal malignancies commonly spread by local invasion. Extension is possible into the orbit due to proximity and the thin barrier of bone and intracranially due to olfactory nerve bres extending into the nasal cavity. Periosteum, perichondrium, and dura appear to act as temporary barriers and to resist tumour expansion to some extent. e anterior maxilla and orbital oor are very thin and readily destroyed by tumour.
Patterns of local spread are summarised in Figure 66.1.
Ohngren’s line runs from the medial canthus of the eye to the angle of the mandible. Tumour position in relation to this line historically had implications for prognosis. Superiorly based tumours tend to be more aggressive and poorly dierentiated, whereas tumours arising inferior to the line are more amenable to treatment and, consequently, have a better prognosis. e advent of craniofacial resection and radiation treatments has rendered this classication less relevant.
Lymphatic Drainage
e lymphatic drainage of the nose and paranasal sinuses predominantly splits into anterior and posterior drainage.
e anteroinferior part of the nasal cavity and the skin of the nasal vestibule drain via the
anterior pathway to the rst-echelon facial, parotid, and submandibular lymph nodes. e remainder drains via the posterior pathway into retropharyngeal nodes.
Both routes subsequently drain to the upper deep cervical chain. Lymphatic spread to regional nodes becomes apparent in 25–35% of patients at some time during the course of their disease. Nodal involvement at presentation is found in 10% of patients.
Distant metastases at the time of presentation are unusual; sites for metastases are bone, brain, liver, lung, and skin.
Staging
For staging of nasal and paranasal sinus malignancy, please refer to Chapter 61.

Biopsy
Ideally, biopsies are performed under general anaesthesia, to reduce the rate of non-diagnostic samples and complications and to allow sampling from within the sinus itself.
Figure 66.2 MRI and CT scans are complementary and help distinguish between tumour,
retained secretions, and dural inltration. This patient had an extensive tumour that had spread into the cavernous sinus and that had inltrated the dura of the temporal lobe (small arrows) and the infratemporal fossa (large arrow). The spread was not apparent on the CT scan, which had shown a relatively small tumour affecting the sphenoid.

Figure 66.3 General principles of management of sinonasal tumours.
Treatment—General Principles
In general, cases should be carefully discussed in a multidisciplinary forum with skull base expertise to determine treatment approach and also to facilitate smooth and timely transfer between specialties, thereby avoiding unnecessary delays in adjuvant therapy. Figure 66.3 outlines general principles of management, with the proviso that certain tumours require more specic management strategies. Multimodality therapy (surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy) has generally been demonstrated to be the most eective approach in the treatment of SCC and SNUC, whereas olfactory neuroblastoma is treated with surgery and post-operative radiotherapy.
Other than the stage of disease, the patient’s wishes, and concurrent comorbidity, there are relatively few contraindications to treatment. Local invasion of the anterior cranial fossa and skull base are not necessarily contraindications given the development of modern surgical techniques. Distant metastases confer a poor prognosis and by denition render the patient incurable. Involvement of the facial skin is also not a contraindication to treatment. e involved area is best excised and repaired with ap, which can be a rotational or a free ap.
Surgery for Maxillary Tumours
A variety of operations for maxillary tumours have been described, the choice of which is determined by the extent of the tumour and amount of bone that needs to be removed.
Figure 66.4 gives an overview of surgical options for maxillary tumours.
Midface Approaches
In the midface, an appropriate so-tissue approach is required to facilitate bony resection, and three are commonly described (Figure 66.5). e selection of the specic approach depends on the pre-operative assessment of tumour location and anatomical considerations for resection to allow for surgery with curative intent. e principles of surgery are so-tissue approach, osteotomies, resection, and reconstruction.

Neck Dissection
e rate of occult metastasis is less than 10%, with no suggestion in retrospective reviews that elective selective neck dissection contributes to an improved rate of neck control or overall survival.
Reconstruction and Rehabilitation of the Midface
Patients requiring extensive ablative surgery will predominately need post-operative radio­therapy. Meticulous rehabilitation, be it biological or prosthetic, aims to ensure a good cos­metic and functional outcome with separation of the nasal and oral cavities. Low defects not compromising the orbit adnexa can oen be treated eectively with obturators. Where a dental obturator is used, healing of the bony cavity can be rapid, but it is benecial to apply a split-thickness skin gra to the under surface of the facial skin ap. Aer the facial inci­sion is closed, the cavity should be immediately tted with a temporary prosthesis to cover

Larger defects necessitate ap reconstruction, oen in the form of a free ap. Options for composite (bone and muscle) aps include (but are not limited to):
Deep circumex iliac artery (DCIA) bone ap
Scapula tip ap
Surgery for Ethmoid Tumours
Figure 66.6 describes surgical approaches to the ethmoids. Surgical technique selection
depends on patient, tumour (location, extent), and surgical experience.
Management of the Orbit
Attempts to preserve the orbital contents and diminish mutilation oen result in orbital recurrence. If the orbital muscles, globe, or orbital apex are involved, a lid-sparing exentera­tion is required. e lids provide good skin cover of the defect and can also be used to cover osseointegrated implants, which can be placed at the time of the surgery. Orbital involve­ment despite exenteration signicantly aects survival.
Prognosis
e overall prognosis for sinonasal malignancy is directly related to the degree of local con­trol. Prognosis varies very signicantly between dierent pathologies.
For olfactory neuroblastoma and adenoid cystic carcinoma, 5-year survival rates are
high, but patients may continue to develop relapses for several decades aer treatment. SNUC and malignant melanoma have very poor 5-year survival rates.
KEY POINTS
Sinonasal malignancies can be difcult to differentiate from non-neoplastic lesions.
Sinonasal malignancies are uncommon, representing <1% of all malignancies and
<3% of all upper aerodigestive tract cancers.
Sinonasal malignancies tend to present late.
The main treatment modalities are surgery and radiotherapy.
Olfactory neuroblastoma and adenoid cystic carcinoma may relapse after a decade;
therefore, patients should be followed up for at least 15 years.

67. BENIGN AND MALIGNANT DISEASE OF THE ORAL CAVITY
Common Disorders of Teeth and Periodontium
Dental Caries
Dynamic imba lance occu rs between demi neralisat ion and reminera lisation of enamel.
Bacteria in dental plaque generate acid environment.
Progression leads to cavitation and invasion of dentinal tubules.
Treatment is with restoration of integrity.
Tooth Wear
Non-plaque-mediated chemical dissolution of tooth tissue (erosion)
Non-masticatory tooth-to-tooth contact (attrition)
Friction of exogenous material against tooth surface (abrasion)
Dental Infections
Pulpitis: dental pulp inammation, usually secondary to caries. Treatment is root canal
or extraction rather than antibiotics. Acute dentoalveolar abscess: pain, swelling, erythema, and suppuration usually adja-
cent to causative tooth. Treatment is root canal surgery or extraction with or without systemic antibiotics. Pericoronitis: acute localised infection around a partially erupted tooth.
Periodontal disease: plaque-related inammation of the gingival or periodontal tissues.
Gingival Abnormalities
Pigmentation: localised or generalised, with many causes, including melanoma, Kaposi’s
sarcoma, smoking, and Addison’s disease. Redness: local or general, and can be attributed to lichen planus, allergies, or herpetic
stomatitis. Swellings: can be local (epulides) or general, related to systemic causes.
Ulceration: most common causes neoplasm, aphthous ulcers, or bacterial infections.
Dental Trauma
Common especially in childhood. Avulsed permanent teeth need immediate reim-
plantation, avulsed deciduous teeth should be le out. Other dental trauma requires dental practitioner follow-up. Be vigilant for non-accidental injury.

Infections of the Jaw
Alveolar osteitis (dry socket): localized inammation aer dental extraction.
Management is curettage of the socket to promote blood clot formation.
344 Head and Neck
BENIGN AND MALIGNANT DISEASE OF THE ORAL CAVITY
Osteomyelitis: acute or chronic. Treatment is with surgical debridement and systemic
antibiotics. Osteonecrosis: secondary to medicat ion related osteoradionecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ)
or radiotherapy.
Cysts of the Jaw
Inammatory
Radicular cyst: most common inammatory cyst. Occurs around apex of non-vital
tooth. Diagnosis is with vitality testing. Treatment is with surgical enucleation.
Developmental
Dentigerous cyst: Develops around crown of unerupted tooth. Mostly unilocular.
Treatment is either enucleation or marsupialisation.
Non-Odontogenic Developmental Cysts
Nasopalatine duct cyst: embryological remnant of nasopalatine duct. Oen incidental
radiological nding.
Non-Epithelial Bone Cyst
Aneurysmal bone cyst: controversial because there is no cyst lining. Scalloped appear-
ance on radiography. Biopsy conrms no lining and healing then occurs. Ameloblastoma: locally invasive odontogenic bone tumour. Appears uni- or multi-
cystic on x-ray. Histopathological diagnosis is mandatory.
Disorders affecting the Oral Mucosa
Benign Oral Mucosal Changes
Frictional keratosis: adaptation of oral mucosa to increased trauma.
Leukoedema and nicotinic stomatitis: generalised white change of the oral mucosa.
Most commonly seen in smokers. Sometimes red spots on white background when openings of minor salivary glands are visible. Fordyce spots: small yellow/white sebaceous spots commonly on the buccal mucosa
from developmental substitution of minor salivary for sebaceous glands. Tongue coating: true coating of the tongue is rare. Occasional overgrowth and stain-
ing, ‘brown hairy tongue’, is rarely pathological. Geographic tongue: synchronous turnover with thinning of the mucosa of the tongue
leads to red patches. Appearance moves across tongue. No curative treatment available. Median rhomboid glossitis: red, depapillated, smooth, rhomboidal area on dorsum of
tongue. Mostly asymptomatic but occasionally associated with immunosuppression. No treatment required. Mucosal swellings: Fibroepithelial polyps, viral warts, and lipomas are common rea-
sons for referral.
Changes in Mucosa Colour
White: commonly with mucosal thickening by acanthosis or hyperkeratosis.
Established squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) can present as a white patch, but dysplasia presents this way less frequently. Red: reects thinning of the mucosa or increased vascularity (e.g. dysplasia or
malignancy). Pigmentation: localised or generalised. Intraoral melanomas are rare.
Grey/blue: oen related to foreign bodies, such as dental amalgam or heavy metal poi-
soning. Dark blue lesions are mostly venous malformations.

Oral Ulceration
Aphthous ulceration: immunological ulcers that are multifactorial in origin
(Table 67.1). Erythema multiforme: immunological hypersensitivity reaction that can aect an
individual system or multiple systems (Stevens-Johnson syndrome). Intraorally, it presents as widespread oral ulceration leading to tissue damage and swollen, crusted lips. Multiple drug triggers. Treated with high-dose systemic steroids.
Systemic Diseases and the Mouth
Skin Diseases
Pemphigus and pemphigoid: autoimmune disorders driven by immunoglobulins,
resulting in separation of epithelial cells (pemphigus) or of basement membrane (pemphigoid). Signicant variability in skin lesion presentation. All patients should have ophthalmological assessment due to conjunctival scarring. Lichen planus: very common T-cell-mediated attack on basement membrane. Can be
white (acanthosis), red (atrophy/ulceration), or mixed. Lesions tend to be intermittent and recurring. Diagnosis is via incisional biopsy. Treatment is usually symptomatic, with topical steroids. Scleroderma: either in isolation or as part of CREST. May signicantly aect mouth
opening.
Gastrointestinal Disorders
Ulcerative colitis: aphthous ulceration during periods of disease activity.
Crohn’s disease: can present early in disease process with swelling, angular cheilitis,
mucosal tagging, cobblestone appearance of mucosa, linear ulceration, or gingival inammation. Orofacial granulomatosis: features of Crohn’s disease but no GI disorder. Likely
immunological. Exclusion diet initially (e.g. benzoate, sorbate, cinnamon, and choco­late). Systemic immunotherapy occasionally required.

BENIGN AND MALIGNANT DISEASE OF THE ORAL CAVITY
Viral Diseases
Herpes simplex virus (HSV): HSV 1 or 2 can cause primary herpetic stomatitis.
Recurrent lesion can present as persistent ulceration on palate. Herpes zoster virus (HZV): multiple oral vesicles, which may be neuropathic.
Epstein–Barr virus (EBV): neck swellings, hairy leukoplakia, and nasopharyngeal
cancer. Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV8): Kaposi’s sarcoma.
Human immunodeciency virus (HIV): rarely associated with oral lesions following to
highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART).

Orofacial Pain
Trigeminal neuralgia: Unknown origin; classically, electric shooting pain with a trig-
ger zone on face. Single branch of trigeminal nerve oen aected. Carbamazepine is rst-line management. Cluster headaches: unilateral pain with ptosis, facial erythema/swelling, lacrimation,
and nasal discharge. Inhaled oxygen or triptan benecial. Atypical odontalgia: intense toothache with no dental pathology.
Oral dysesthesia: Altered sensation, such as feeling of dryness, burning, numbness,
or change in taste. No underlying pathology. Occasional haematinic deciency. Reassurance oen helpful. Temporomandibular disorder: common.
Malignant Tumours of the Oral Cavity
Introduction
The oral cavity is lined by stratified squamous epithelium of varying degrees of kera­tinisation. Primary tumours can be derived from mucosa, salivary glands, neurovascu­lar tissues, bone, or dental tissues. Over 90% of tumours are squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). There has been an increase of over 20% of oral cancer in patients under the age of 65, with HPV-associated oropharyngeal carcinoma playing an increasing role. Globally, tobacco and alcohol remain the main aetiological factors. Five-year survival rates are 80% if the cancer is confined to the mucosa, 40% for those with regional spread, and 20% with distant disease.
