Rous Sarcoma Virus (RSV) and Cancer01:03

Rous Sarcoma Virus (RSV) and Cancer

Rous Sarcoma virus or RSV was discovered by F. Peyton Rous in the year 1911 as a filterable transmissible agent that could cause tumors in chickens. He won a Nobel Prize for this discovery in 1966. His experiments clearly demonstrated that some cancers could be caused by infectious agents and led to the discovery of many more cancer-causing viruses in animals as well as humans.
RSV is a retrovirus that contains two copies of a plus-strand  RNA genome. Its genome consists of four main open...

Nose and Nasal Cavity01:24

Nose and Nasal Cavity

The nose is composed of an observable exterior segment (external nose) and an internal segment within the skull known as the nasal cavity (internal nose). The external nose, visible on the face, consists of a framework of bone and hyaline cartilage enveloped in skin and muscle and lined with a mucous membrane. This structure is supported by the frontal bone, nasal bones, and maxillary bone and is supplemented by a cartilaginous framework comprising the septal nasal cartilage, lateral nasal...

Area of Science:

  • Otorhinolaryngology (ENT)
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Radiation Oncology

Background:

  • Teratocarcinosarcoma is an extremely rare and aggressive malignant tumor, often presenting with non-specific symptoms.
  • Nasal obstruction and persistent headaches can be indicative of sinonasal masses, necessitating thorough investigation.
  • Diagnostic challenges in sinonasal tumors require a multimodal approach including imaging and histopathology.

Observation:

  • A 20-year-old male presented with a year-long history of left-sided nasal obstruction and headache.
  • Clinical examination revealed a reddish, fleshy mass within the left nasal cavity.
  • Initial carotid angiography was inconclusive, prompting an incisional biopsy.

Findings:

  • Histopathological analysis of the biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of teratocarcinosarcoma.
  • CT scan of the paranasal sinuses (PNS) demonstrated a heterogeneous mass with intracranial extension.
  • Surgical intervention involved a combined lateral rhinotomy and trans-basal sub-frontal craniotomy approach.

Implications:

  • Combined surgical resection and Cobalt-60 (Co 60) radiotherapy, delivering a tumor dose of 56 Gy, proved effective.
  • The patient achieved a disease-free status following treatment and remains under regular follow-up.
  • This case underscores the importance of aggressive multidisciplinary management for rare sinonasal malignancies.
