Overview

According to a staging system by Kadish, there are four stages of esthesioneuroblastoma based upon the extent of the primary tumor and lymph node or distant metastases. In 1992, Dulguerov and Calceterra proposed a classification based on the tumor, node, metastasis (TNM) system, predicted on CT and MRI findings that can be identified before treatment.[1][2][3]

Staging

  • The most widely used approach is the Kadish clinical staging system. Kadish et al were the first to propose a staging classification for esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB). Esthesioneuroblastomas were divided into three categories: groups A, B, and C.
  • Group A is limited to tumors of the nasal fossa.
  • Group B, extension is to the paranasal sinuses.
  • Group C is defined as extension beyond the paranasal sinuses and nasal cavity.[1]
  • In 1993, Morita et al published a revised Kadish system that redefined stage C (consisting of local disease spreading beyond the paranasal sinuses) and included a stage D (distant metastasis).[2]
  • In 1992, Dulguerov and Calceterra proposed a classification based on the tumor, node, metastasis (TNM) system, which is predicted on CT and MRI findings that can be identified before treatment.[3]

Kadish staging of Esthesioneuroblastoma

Stage Features
Stage A
  • Tumor is limited to the nasal cavity
Stage B
  • Tumor is limited to the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses
Stage C
  • Extension beyond the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses
Stage D
  • Regional lymph node or distant metastasis

T Categories of esthesioneuroblastoma

T Classification Thickness
T1
Tumor involvong the nasal cavity and/or paranasal sinuses (excluding sphenoid), sparing the most superior ethmoid cells
T2
Tumor involving the nasal cavity and/or paranasal sinuses (including the sphenoid), with extention to or erosion of the cribiform plate
T3
Tumor extending into the orbit or protruding into the anterior cranial fossa, without dural invasion
T4
Tumor involving the brain

N Categories of Esthesioneuroblastoma

N Lymph Node Features
N0
No cervical lymph node metastasis
N1
Any form of cervical lymph node metastases

M Categories of Esthesioneuroblastoma

N Lymph Node Features
M0
No metastasis
M1
