Title: Esthesioneuroblastoma. A case report. Author: Feifel H, Riediger D, Gärtner HV. Journal: Int J Oral Maxillofac Surg; 1992 Oct; 21(5):292-4. PubMed ID: 1453029. Abstract: 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.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
