Abstract:
The sinonasal tract is an anatomical region affected by a wide variety of tumors with different clinical behavior, histologic and molecular features. Substantial advances have been made in the field of sinonasal tumor pathology in recent years, including improvement in the diagnosis, treatment and genetic characterization. In this article, a review of the histological features of new distinctive pathologic entities as well as newly described molecular alterations of these rare tumors is presented.
