  • Title: Oncocytic carcinoma of the nasal cavity with widespread lymph node metastases.
    Author: Abe T, Murakami A, Nakajima N, Inoue T, Ohde S, Miwa M, Ueda Y, Kawabata K, Watanabe K.
    Journal: Auris Nasus Larynx; 2007 Sep; 34(3):393-6. PubMed ID: 17459629.
    Abstract:
    The first case of oncocytic carcinoma which arose from the inferior turbinate of the nasal cavity with orbital invasion through the nasolacrimal canal and widespread lymph node metastases in the neck and face is reported here. The tumor metastasized rapidly, spread widely to the whole neck and face, and produced tumor emboli in the lymphatics and extranodal extension by rupture of the lymph node capsule in the absence of clinically palpable regional lymph node enlargement. We think the oncocytic carcinoma of the nasal cavity may be a high-grade malignancy tumor.
