Sarcomas of the nose and paranasal sinuses are rare malignancies. Key issues remain unresolved in the management of these tumors, particularly with regard to the role of radiotherapy. To help clarify these issues, 48 consecutive cases of nasal and paranasal sinus sarcomas treated at the University of California, Los Angeles, between 1958 and 1988 were retrospectively reviewed. Six of 16 patients managed initially with surgery alone were cured. All had negative surgical margins and 5 of the 6 had low-grade tumors. Of 5 patients with high-grade lesions treated with surgery only, 1 was rendered free of disease. Twelve patients with positive surgical margins were treated with adjuvant radiotherapy; 5 were cured with this approach. Grade and surgical margin status were found to be significantly related to outcome for sinonasal sarcoma. There were 14 patients with rhabdomyosarcoma; 3 were cured with modern combined-modality therapy. Patients with positive surgical margins should be treated with adjuvant radiotherapy. Surgical therapy is effective for low-grade lesions that are completely excised.

Abstract Purpose To analyze the clinical characteristics and long-term follow-up of patients with advanced ocular surface squamous cell carcinoma (OSSC) involving periocular tissues and/or orbit. Primary outcomes were overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), and overall recurrence rate (RR). Secondary outcomes were a correlation between primary outcomes and tumor location, American Joint Committee on Cancer Classification (AJCC) staging system, histological results, surgical margins, and type of treatment. Study design: a retrospective case series. Methods The medical records of patients affected by OSSC involving periocular tissues and/or orbit referring, from 01/2011 to 01/2020, to our tertiary referral center were reviewed. Results Thirty-six eyes of 36 patients were included. The mean age was 68.2 years; 18 (50%) patients were males. The mean follow-up was 40 months. The RR was 64%. The OS at 12, 24, 36, and 60 months was respectively 97.1%, 92.7%, 92.7%, and 92.7%. The DFS at 12, 24, 36, and 60 months was respectively 62.9%, 50.8%, 41.6%, and 29.7%. Multicentric disease (p = 0.0039), inferior tarsus localization (p = 0.0428), histological diagnosis of high-risk SSCs (p = 0.0264), positive surgical margins (p = 0.0434), and excisional biopsy (EB) alone (p = 0.0005) were associated with an increased risk of recurrence. A shorter OS was observed in patients who underwent EB alone (p = 0.0049). Conclusion OSCC involving periocular tissues and/or orbit is an aggressive disease with a high recurrence rate. Multicentric disease, positive surgical margins, inferior tarsus localization, and surgery without adjuvant therapies are strong predictors of recurrence and are the main factors affecting prognosis.
