A case of olfactory neuroblastoma has been presented. The clinical signs and symptoms described in this case are not uncommon and often result in early misdiagnosis. The favorable prognosis for olfactory neuroblastoma dictates early diagnosis, using the clinical signs and symptoms along with adjunctive aids such as incisional biopsy, panoramic survey, and CT scanning. Surgical excision followed by radiation therapy in an early diagnosed case of olfactory neuroblastoma greatly increases the five-year survival rate.
本文报告了一例嗅神经母细胞瘤病例。该病例中所描述的临床体征和症状并不罕见，且常常导致早期误诊。嗅神经母细胞瘤预后良好，这就要求利用临床体征和症状以及诸如切开活检、全景检查和CT扫描等辅助手段进行早期诊断。对于早期诊断的嗅神经母细胞瘤病例，手术切除后再进行放射治疗可大大提高五年生存率。
