Malignant melanoma of the sinonasal cavity is an uncommon disease, and therefore a limited amount of data exists regarding its optimal treatment. The course of the disease is highly variable. Individual survival is also highly variable, but the overall prognosis is poor; probably because patients generally present at a late stage and because the disease has a proclivity for distant dissemination. We describe 2 recent cases of primary malignant melanoma of the sinonasal mucosa, and we review the literature.
鼻窦恶性黑色素瘤是一种罕见疾病，因此关于其最佳治疗方法的数据有限。该疾病的病程差异很大。个体生存期也差异很大，但总体预后较差；这可能是因为患者通常在疾病晚期才就诊，且该疾病易于发生远处转移。我们描述了2例近期鼻窦黏膜原发性恶性黑色素瘤病例，并对相关文献进行了综述。
