Optimum imaging for inverted papilloma.

Inverted papilloma is the most common benign tumour of the nose and paranasal sinuses, and usually arises in the lateral wall of the nasal cavity and the middle meatus. The diagnosis is suggested on computed tomography (CT) when there is a mass continuous from the middle meatus into the adjacent maxillary antrum, through an expanded maxillary ostium. The mass may contain areas of high density or calcification, and there may be sclerosis of the wall of the affected sinus. The main advantage of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is in defining the extent of the tumour, and in differentiating it from adjacent inflammatory tissue, but there are no certain signal intensity or enhancement characteristics to help differentiate inverted papilloma from sinus malignancy. In the differential diagnosis, antro-choanal polyp, malignant sinus tumours and chronic rhinosinusitis and fungal disease need to be excluded. The combination of bone deformity and sclerosis with the typical antro-meatal mass suggests a slow-growing tumour such as inverted papilloma.

[Four cases of inverted papilloma].

Inverted papilloma is a benign lesion fo the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses. Its aggressiveness and association with malignancy have been emphasized in the literature. In this paper, four patients (3 females, 1 male) with inverted papilloma are presented. Their ages ranged between 45 and 68 years. Surgery was performed using the degloving method which enables a wide exposure and radical resection with minimal scar on the face. No recurrences were detected in the postoperative period in patients with regular controls. The importance of postoperative histopathologic examination is addressed with a review of the literature.

[Endocranial invasion of inverted papilloma].

Inverted papilloma (PI) is a benign neoplasm of nose and paranasal sinuses. IP's pathophysiology is characterized by its capacity to be locally destructive, its ability to grow rapidly and its tendency to recur. IP's association with carcinoma is about 13 percent of cases. The surgical treatment of IP has evolved over the years, with a progression toward more radical en bloc extirpation. The paper reports an inverted papilloma case of nasal cavities, with destruction of frontal sinus roof and intracranial extension aside frontal lobe displacement.

Upper urinary tract inverted papillomas.

Inverted papilloma is a rare, benign tumor. Only 33 cases to date have been reported to have occurred in the upper urinary tract. These lesions have a male predominance, are difficult to diagnose, and are associated with urothelial malignancy. Because transitional cell carcinoma can present even 8 years after surgery and in other sites within the urinary system, careful follow-up is essential. This article adds 2 new cases and 1 follow-up of a previously reported case from 1990.

Epithelial cell proliferation, apoptosis, and apoptosis inhibition in inverted papillomas.

Inverted papillomas (IPs) are rare benign tumors of nasal epithelium with high recurrence rates and malignant transformation potential. Their etiology is still uncertain, and the mechanism of their growth has not yet been fully described. The purpose of this study was to detect, quantify, and compare cell proliferation, apoptosis, and apoptosis inhibition in hyperplastic epithelium from IPs and in inflammatory nasal polyps (NPs). IP samples were obtained after surgical removal of tumor in 13 patients, and NPs were sampled during endoscopic ethmoidectomy in 10 patients with nasal polyposis. Cell proliferation and apoptosis inhibition, respectively, were assessed by immunohistochemical identification of the proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and the oncoprotein Bcl-2. Apoptosis was evaluated by analyzing the DNA fragmentation. Cell proliferation and apoptosis were significantly higher in IPs than in NPs (P = .0002 and P = .043, respectively), while apoptosis inhibition was significantly lower in IPs than in NPs (P = .001). Concerning IPs, cell proliferation was significantly higher than apoptosis (P = .0029) and apoptosis inhibition (P = .0015). The increase in epithelial cell proliferation seemed to be greater in IPs with dysplasia than in IPs without dysplasia. Increased epithelial cell proliferation, but not apoptosis and apoptosis inhibition, seems to be involved in the development of IP.

[Inverted papillomas].

Inverted papilloma is a relatively rare benign tumour of nasal mucosa and paranasal sinuses which approx. in 15% is connected with malignancy. The morphology, occurrence, etiology and biological behaviour of this tumour are dealt with. A group of 8 patients is presented. The significance of nasal polyps routine histologic investigation for early detection of these tumours is stressed. Various treatment possibilities are discussed and a therapeutic procedure based on radical surgery is suggested.

Degloving approach for total excision of inverted papilloma.

Inverted papilloma, because of its insidious and aggressive clinical course, must be completely excised. Previously, the customary procedure advocated for this goal was a lateral rhinotomy. The degloving approach, which consists of lifting the soft tissues from the mid portion of the face, thereby furnishing unlimited exposure to the pyriform fossae and the lateral nasal walls, offers an excellent alternative to the lateral rhinotomy technique. The degloving procedure involves no external scarring and improves the visibility of the total operative field. En bloc dissection of the lateral nasal wall is then accomplished and extended to include a sphenoethmoidectomy or partial excision of the medial orbital wall, as dictated by the extent of disease. The procedure has been performed by the authors in 46 cases, and has proved to be an extremely valuable technique, displaying excellent cosmetic and functional results with minimal complications.

Microscopic rhinoscopy in the treatment of inverted papillomas.

Inverted papillomas are endophytic lesions arising from tissues in the nose and paranasal sinuses noted for their local destruction, propensity to recur, and tendency for malignant transformation. It has been well documented that complete removal is essential in the prevention of recurrence; however, use of the operating microscope to ensure this has not been widely described in the past. We present 4 patients, ages 36 to 56, for whom the operating microscope was used intra-operatively and for follow-up examinations. The patients have been followed for 1 to 5 years without any evidence of recurrence to date. We submit that the operating microscope is an extremely valuable tool for the surgical treatment of this lesion in light of the absolute necessity for its complete removal.

[Inverted papilloma or inverted urothelial carcinoma. A problem not yet resolved in its totality. Contribution of two new cases to the literature].

We present two case of inverted vesical papillomas, one of a trabecular histology and the other glandular, which--in view of the appearance in the last few years of inverted papillomas coexisting alongside other urothelium tumorous states, recurring and even malignant inverted papillomas--raise the possibility of them being considered as superficial urothelium carcinomas. We propose the use of post-surgical endo-vesical chemotherapy, above all in the patients affected by the trabecular variety of inverted papillomas, due to their high indices of recurrence and high possibilities of malignancy.

Expression of p53 in inverted papilloma and malignancy associated with inverted papilloma.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the association of p53 protein in malignant cases of inverted papilloma compared with cases of benign inverted papilloma of the sinonasal tract. DESIGN: Case-control study of archived pathologic material. SETTING: Tertiary care hospital. METHODS: Archived pathologic material of cases of malignancy associated with inverted papilloma and controls of benign inverted papilloma were obtained from Mount Sinai Hospital. These were subjected to immunohistochemistry for p53. Clinical correlation was obtained by retrospective chart review. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Staining of pathologic specimens for p53 and survival or recurrence. RESULTS: Four of the five cases of malignancy associated with inverted papilloma demonstrated overexpression of p53. None of the benign cases of inverted papilloma demonstrated overexpression. Only two of the five patients with malignancy associated with inverted papilloma were alive at 2 years. CONCLUSIONS: Overexpression of p53 may serve as a marker for malignant transformation of inverted papilloma.

Endoscopic surgery for recurrent inverted papilloma.

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: Inverted papilloma of the nose and paranasal sinuses is noted for its high rate of recurrence. The feasibility of endoscopic treatment for inverted papilloma has been shown in the literature; however, reports discussing the efficacy of endoscopic surgery for recurrent diseases are rare. The study determined the effectiveness of endoscopic surgery for recurrent inverted papilloma and described when endoscopic medial maxillectomy was indicated. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective. METHODS: Seventeen patients with recurrent inverted papilloma were treated over a 10-year period. Krouse's staging system was used for tumor grading. Because of the extent of the tumor in the majority (70.6%) of the patients, en bloc resection could not be regularly achieved; therefore, sequential segmental endoscopic surgery was the chosen treatment. Some diseases that extensively involved the maxillary sinus were treated by the combination of endoscopic medial maxillectomy (EMM) and sequential segmental surgery (SSES) to extirpate the whole disease. RESULTS: Efficacy was evaluated strictly by radiographic study. Successful treatment was accomplished in 14 (82.4%) patients. Three (17.6%) patients had residual disease; each required one revision surgery. None of the patients had recurrence at the time of writing. There were no major complications or associated malignancies encountered in the patients. CONCLUSION: Endoscopic surgery is an effective treatment for recurrent inverted papilloma. Precise determination of the sites of tumor origin and attachment during the operation is the key to the successful treatment. Recurrent inverted papilloma tends to behave more aggressively and has a higher postoperative recurrence rate than the primary lesion. Stage III disease had a higher recurrence rate (27.3%) than that of other stages (0%).

Intracranial inverting papilloma.

BACKGROUND: Inverting papillomas usually originate from the lateral wall of the nose and sporadically from the ethmoid, maxillary, sphenoid, or frontal sinuses. Intracranial extension and dural penetration is rare and often associated with recurrent disease that has degenerated into squamous cell carcinoma. A case of inverting papilloma with dural penetration in the absence of malignant degeneration has prompted an investigation into the incidence and treatment of dural invasion by benign inverting papilloma. METHODS: A literature search revealed 1468 cases of inverting papilloma. A detailed analysis was performed to obtain data on the incidence of intracranial invasion. RESULTS: Of the 1468 cases, 5 were noted to be associated with intracranial extension without histologic evidence of malignancy (0.34%). Treatment consisted of surgery alone in 3, radiotherapy in 1, and combined therapy in the last patient. Dural invasion was documented histopathologically in one case. CONCLUSION: Intracranial extension and dural penetration of benign inverting papilloma is extremely rare, and a uniform treatment plan has not been established. Further investigation is necessary in the pathophysiology and management of intracranial inverting papilloma.

[Human papillomavirus and nasosinusal inverted papilloma].

Eight inverted papillomas were evaluated for the presence of human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA. The techniques used were Southern Blot Hybridization in five cases and Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) in three cases. All eight lesions contained the characteristic features of inverted papillomas. Two lesions showed areas of dysplastic change and one lesion contained koilocytes. In three patients, invasive squamous cell carcinomas were found. The presence of HPV was noted in one of these specimen of inverted papilloma with squamous cell carcinoma. Specific testing for HPV types 6, 11, 16, 18 and 33 on this specimen was negative, thus indicating that the specimen is associated with a different HPV type. The results of this study, with only one case of positive HPV testing, leads us to question the precise role of HPV as an etiological agent in nasal inverted papillomas. The fact that this single positive case did not test positive for the HPV type 16 suggest that this is not the only "high risk" HPV type associated with the progression of inverted papilloma to a carcinoma.

Malignant inverted papilloma of the urinary bladder: the histopathological aspect of malignant potential of inverted papilloma.

To investigate the histopathological characteristics of inverted papillomas of the urinary bladder, including the possibility of malignant transformation, we studied the indicators of cellular proliferation activity in 7 inverted papillomas of the bladder including two cases of malignant inverted papilloma of the bladder. PCNA expression rates in two cases of malignant inverted papilloma were higher than in benign inverted papillomas. Mean numbers of AgNORs per nucleus in malignant inverted papillomas were much more than in benign inverted papillomas. The c-erbB-2 oncoprotein was expressed only in malignant inverted papillomas. These results suggest that PCNA expression rate, mean number of AgNORs per nucleus and c-erB-2 oncoprotein expression may be merited as good indicators to detect the inverted papilloma with more proliferative and aggressive lesions, and with the potential of malignant transformation.

Development of a staging system for inverted papilloma.

OBJECTIVES: Inverted papillomas of the nose and sinuses are uncommon neoplasms. In the past decade there has been a trend toward the use of endoscopic surgical techniques in the management of these tumors, in contrast to the extensive open procedures recommended previously. This trend has not been without controversy, given the association of inverted papillomas with malignancy. It has been difficult to compare surgical approaches to these neoplasms, because of the absence of a uniformly applied staging system representing the extent of disease. It was the purpose of this study to develop such a system that could be easily applied in outcomes research. STUDY DESIGN: This study involved an integrated literature review and a synthesis of findings from a number of studies. METHODS: Previous and current clinical studies examining the treatment of inverted papilloma were reviewed. Findings were organized, and a staging system was framed based on this review. RESULTS: A simple, easily applied staging system was developed based on the extent of tumor involvement noted on endoscopic examination of the nasal cavity and computed tomography (CT) scan evaluation. CONCLUSIONS: Stage I disease is limited to the nasal cavity alone. Stage II disease is limited to the ethmoid sinuses and medial and superior portions of the maxillary sinuses. Stage III disease involves the lateral or inferior aspects of the maxillary sinuses or extension into the frontal or sphenoid sinuses. Stage IV disease involves tumor spread outside the confines of the nose and sinuses, as well as any malignancy.

The endoscopic management of sinonasal inverted papillomas.

Sinonasal inverted papillomas are well known for high recurrence rates after surgery and the risk of malignant change. Recurrent disease occurs because of inadequate excision as a result of poor exposure and visualization. For these reasons, aggressive surgery has been advocated-classically a lateral rhinotomy and en bloc medial maxillectomy. Endoscopic techniques have provided excellent visualization and a less invasive approach to these tumours. We describe 18 patients with inverted papillomas treated endoscopically at the Singapore General Hospital since 1993. The presentation, sites of involvement and diagnostic imaging are presented. All the patients had a minimum follow-up of 18 months with a mean of 32.8 months. One case of recurrence at the frontal recess is reported. Endoscopic management is appropriate for the diagnosis, follow-up and treatment of circumscribed primary and recurrent inverted papillomas.
