Endoscopic surgery shows promise for sinonasal tumors, but more evidence is needed to compare its outcomes against traditional craniofacial resection for malignant sinonasal cancers.

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Neurosurgery
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Endoscopic approaches have demonstrated success in treating benign sinonasal tumors.
  • This success has spurred interest in utilizing endoscopic techniques for sinonasal malignancies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review and present the existing evidence comparing endoscopic approaches with traditional craniofacial resection for sinonasal malignancies.
  • To evaluate the clinical outcomes of these two surgical techniques based on established evidence-based medicine guidelines.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic review of existing literature.
  • Application of the Oxford Center for Evidence-based Medicine guidelines to assess the quality of evidence.
  • Comparison of endoscopic versus craniofacial resection for various sinonasal malignancies.

Main Results:

  • Evidence comparing endoscopic approaches and craniofacial resection for sinonasal malignancy is currently limited.
  • The heterogeneity and rarity of these cancers contribute to the scarcity of high-quality comparative data.
  • Further research is needed to establish definitive clinical outcomes for each technique.

Conclusions:

  • While endoscopic surgery is promising for sinonasal tumors, robust evidence for its efficacy in malignant cases compared to craniofacial resection is still developing.
  • The current evidence base, evaluated using the Oxford Center for Evidence-based Medicine guidelines, highlights the need for more research.
  • More data is required to guide the optimal surgical management of sinonasal malignancies.
