Esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) is a rare neuroectodermal tumor originating from the olfactory mucosa and therefore usually arising from the nasopharynx. A case in which the diagnosis was made in connection with the extraction of a tooth is reported. Manifestation in the dento-alveolar region is unusual for this tumor. The case presented is also unusual in that the classic symptoms of ENB were not present. Diagnosis, classification, and therapy are described with a brief review of the literature.
嗅神经母细胞瘤(ENB)是一种罕见的神经外胚层肿瘤,起源于嗅黏膜,因此通常发生于鼻咽部。本文报道了一例与拔牙相关的诊断病例。该肿瘤在牙槽区域的表现并不常见。所呈现的病例还具有不典型性,即不存在嗅神经母细胞瘤的经典症状。本文描述了诊断、分类及治疗方法,并对相关文献进行了简要回顾。
