Aims: Sinonasal adenosquamous carcinoma (ASC) is a rare tumour classified as a variant of squamous cell carcinoma, exhibiting both squamous and glandular differentiation. ASC has a poorer prognosis compared to sinonasal mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC), another uncommon tumour in this region. ASC is believed to originate from metaplastic squamous epithelium, though it may also arise from respiratory epithelium in respiratory epithelial adenomatoid hamartoma (REAH) or seromucinous glands in seromucinous hamartoma (SH).

Carcinomas of the head-and-neck region with squamous and glandular/mucinous features constitute a heterogeneous group, with a significant minority of tumors showing an human papillomavirus (HPV) association. The differential diagnosis is usually between mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) and adenosquamous carcinoma. We present here two tumors that exemplify both the challenges of diagnostic classification, as well as the complex relationship to HPV: (a) a low risk HPV positive/p16 negative carcinoma that is most consistent with a relatively typical intermediate grade mucoepidermoid type carcinoma with complete MEC phenotype (three cell types), originating from intranasal sinonasal papillomas with exophytic and inverted patterns, and invading surrounding maxillary compartments, and (b) a p16 and keratin 7 (KRT7) positive carcinoma of the right tonsil, characterized by stratified squamous and mucinous cell (mucocyte) features.

We report a rare case of sinonasal inverted papilloma (IP) associated with small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (SNEC). To our knowledge, this is the first report to describe SNEC found during the treatment of sinonasal IP. Surgery and five cycles of cisplatin plus etoposide with concurrent intensity modulated radiation therapy were performed.
