Recent advances have increased our understanding of sinonasal undifferentiated and poorly differentiated carcinomas (UD/PDca). Several novel molecularly defined entities have emerged from within this group. Notably, they have histologic features that overlap with each other, and with other sinonasal neoplasms. Despite molecular advances, sinonasal tumors are primarily characterized based on histologic features, which prompt selected ancillary tests to arrive at the final diagnosis within the spectrum of sinonasal UD/PDca. This review provides insights into their differentiation from each other and from a wide range of more familiar morphologic mimics using immunohistochemistry, in situ hybridization, and molecular testing.
近年来,我们对鼻腔鼻窦未分化和低分化癌(UD/PDca)的认识有了提高。在这一群体中出现了几个新的分子定义实体。值得注意的是,它们的组织学特征相互重叠,并与其他鼻腔鼻窦肿瘤重叠。尽管分子学有了进展,但鼻腔鼻窦肿瘤主要还是根据组织学特征来进行特征描述,这促使选择辅助检测来在鼻腔鼻窦 UD/PDca 的范围内得出最终诊断。本综述介绍了如何使用免疫组织化学、原位杂交和分子检测来对它们彼此之间以及与更常见的形态模拟物进行区分。
