Abstract:
INTRODUCTION: Olfactory neuroblastoma, also call as esthesioneuroblastoma, is a rare neuroectodermal malignant tumor arising from the olfactory epithelium, located in superior part of the nasal cavity and characterized by frequent local recurrences. The treatment of tumor is surgical (cranio-facial resection) follow by radiotherapy and chemotherapy. CASE REPORT: The authors present a particular case of olfactory neuroblastoma, operated twice by nasal approach (2008-R0 surgery, 2011-R1 surgery) and re relapsed after one year, showing anterior cranial fossa extension. In 2012, the pacient was re operated by paralateronasal approach (maxillary resection) and after one month, his death occurred following a cerebral hemorrhage and cerebral perilesional edema. CONCLUSIONS: An earlier combined treatment can improve the survival the quality of life.
