Orbital Involvement by Biphenotypic Sinonasal Sarcoma With a Literature Review.

Abstract：

PURPOSE:To document a case of a biphenotypic sinonasal sarcoma that impinged on the orbit via a tumor-induced mucocele and review the previous literature devoted to this condition. METHODS:A clinicopathologic case report with detailed histopathologic, immunohistochemical, and radiological studies with tabulations of previously reported cases and immunohistochemical stains for ruling out mimicking lesions. RESULTS:A biphenotypic sinonasal sarcoma arose from the ethmoid sinus in a middle-aged man. The tumor induced a mucocele that bowed the medial orbital lamina papyracea into the orbit and caused diplopia and mild proptosis. The biopsy's dual positivity for S100 and smooth muscle actin together with positive paired box 3 immunohistochemical staining established the diagnosis of biphenotypic sinonasal sarcoma. CONCLUSION:Biphenotypic sinonasal sarcoma, which can involve the orbit in 25% of cases, is a rare head and neck malignancy that has only recently been described. Biphenotypic sinonasal sarcoma is a low-grade, locally aggressive, nonmetastasizing sarcoma displaying both neural and muscle differentiation. It is further characterized by rearrangements of the PAX3 gene with multiple fusion partners, most commonly MAML3 (Mastermind like transcriptional coactivator 3). It occurs predominantly in middle-aged women and exclusively in the sinonasal tract. However, it can spread throughout the central facial structures to invade the brain if not detected early. Ophthalmologists should be aware of this new entity to avoid delays in diagnosis and treatment. The previous literature devoted to this condition was reviewed and analyzed for clinical, radiological, histopathological, and immunohistochemical features. In circumstances where molecular testing is not available, paired box 3 immunohistochemical staining can be used as an alternative diagnostic marker. The current case is most unusual because the orbital findings were induced by a mucocele caused by the tumor that obstructed the sinus ostium. This produced diplopia without direct tumor invasion into the orbital fat.
