✦ Synopsis

A retrospective review of the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center experience (MSKCC) with esthesioneuroblastoma was performed. From 1975 to 1985 14 cases were identified. Overall 5-and 10-year survival was 86% and 70%, respectively. Four local failures were observed and 4 neck failures were observed. A review of the literature since 1966 revealed an unexpectedly high incidence of neck failure, and of the 21 of 11 0 patients with neck failures that were identified through the literature, there were 6 subsequent deaths. HEAD 81 NECK 1991;13:321-326

Esthesioneuroblastoma is an uncommon disease with a long natural history. Five-year survival after recurrence is common. In addition to defining a staging system (group A: tumor confined to the nasal cavity; group B: tumor involving nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses; group C: tumor beyond the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses),
