The authors report a 12-case series of olfactory esthesioneuromas, in which they review the main characteristics of this rare tumor. The olfactory esthesioneuroma diagnosis should be evoked for all nasal tumors, especially for tumors originating in a high position. This diagnosis is confirmed by the difficult pathological examination, which currently benefits widely from immunohistochimy. Prognosis is poor and surgery is the main treatment, associated with varying degrees of radiotherapy. As far as chemotherapy is concerned, its role must be clarified.
作者报告了一组12例嗅神经母细胞瘤病例系列，他们回顾了这种罕见肿瘤的主要特征。对于所有鼻腔肿瘤，尤其是起源于高位的肿瘤，都应考虑嗅神经母细胞瘤的诊断。这种诊断通过困难的病理检查得以证实，目前免疫组织化学在病理检查中广泛应用。预后较差，手术是主要治疗方法，并辅以不同程度的放疗。就化疗而言，其作用必须加以明确。
