Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigates the role of pathological dural invasion (pathDI) as a predictor for neck metastases and recurrence in patients with olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB), using data from a multicenter database of ONB cases collected between 2005 and 2021.
  • - Among the 258 patients reviewed, those with pathDI had a significantly lower 10-year neck recurrence-free survival (61.8%) compared to those without it (85.7%), indicating a strong negative impact of pathDI on prognosis.
  • - The analysis revealed that pathDI is a significant predictor of neck recurrence and recurrence at other sites, suggesting that future research could lead to changes in treatment strategies for patients with pathDI. *

We aimed to assess QoL differences between SLIT and SCIT recipients. As both forms of immunotherapy have reported benefits, we hypothesize that patients undergoing SLIT and SCIT will have comparable QoL improvements.
