Oncologic management of sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma

Purpose of review This article reviews the latest treatment paradigms in sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma (SNUC). Recent findings The aggressive biology and associated advanced presentation of SNUC make successful treatment a challenge shared across medical specialties. Still, studies reporting outcomes in SNUC indicate that an aggressive treatment strategy consisting of surgery, radiation and chemotherapy offers the best chance of prolonged survival. Summary Successful treatment of SNUC requires highly specialized care at tertiary cancer treatment facilities. A better understanding of the biology of the disease coupled with increasing outcome reporting will lead to optimized treatment regimens.
