Abstract
AbstractForty-two patients were treated for sarcoma of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses at the Institut Gustave Roussy, Paris, between 1960 and 1993. Twelve patients had chondrosarcoma (CS), 14 had osteosarcoma (OS) and 16 had fibrosarcoma (FS). Ten patients had grade I, six grade II and 26 grade HI tumours.All but 10 patients had surgery for the primary tumour. A significantly increased risk of local failure was associated with the male sex (p<0.01), grade III tumours (p<0.02) and patients excluded from surgery (p<0.04). The overall incidence of local and distant failure was 76 and 12 per cent respectively. Overall survival was 28 per cent at three years and 23 per cent at five years. Eight patients (20 per cent) were alive more than 10 years later. The factors significantly influencing survival were sex (p<0.01), grade (p<0.05) and local failure (p<0.01).
