Salivary duct carcinoma (SDC) is an uncommon but highly aggressive tumor with a poor prognosis. SDC mainly arises from the major salivary glands, typically the parotid gland. Here, we report a rare case of sinonasal SDC in a 54-year-old male patient that might have originated from the inferior turbinate. The patient presented with left nasal congestion and rhinorrhea. Following an endoscopic intervention, the histopathological examination revealed a diagnosis of SDC, characterized by the formation of solid cancer nests and central comedo-type necrosis. Given the highly aggressive nature and unfavorable prognosis of SDC, it is essential to consider it as a differential diagnosis for unilateral nasal tumors.
涎腺导管癌(SDC)是一种罕见但侵袭性很强、预后较差的肿瘤。SDC主要起源于大唾液腺,通常是腮腺。在此,我们报告一例罕见的鼻窦SDC病例,患者为一名54岁男性,肿瘤可能起源于下鼻甲。患者表现为左侧鼻塞和流涕。经过内镜干预后,组织病理学检查确诊为SDC,其特征为形成实性癌巢和中央粉刺样坏死。鉴于SDC具有高度侵袭性且预后不良,将其作为单侧鼻腔肿瘤的鉴别诊断至关重要。
