Dwivedi, Raghav; Dwivedi, Ravi; Kazi, Rehan; Kumar, Sumit & Agarwal, Satya P
Abstract
Mucosal melanoma of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses is seldom encountered in routine ENT practice. These tumors have poor prognosis owing to higher rates of locoregional recurrence and distant metastasis. Various treatment modalities have been employed over time but the ideal treatment approach still remains an open issue. This article presents some commonly accepted guidelines in treating these rare mucosal neoplasms.
Keywords
