Abstract
Purpose
This study aims to provide a broad overview of the epidemiology of cancer of the paranasal sinuses (PSC) in Germany. The data include information on incidence, staging, clinicopathological features and survival from one of the largest cancer registries in Europe.
Methods
Population-based data on PSC diagnosed from January 1st, 2009 until December 31st, 2019 were retrieved from the German Centre for Cancer Registry Data (ZfKD). Age standardized incidence was calculated and relative survival estimates were computed by sex, histological subtype, age group and T-, N-, and M-Stage.
Results
In total, 3975 cases were included in this study. The age-adjusted incidence rate (ASR) for PSC was 0.3/100,000 which remained stable during the observation period. The most frequent tumor localization was the maxillary sinus (41.9 %) and the most common histological subtype was keratinizing squamous cell carcinoma (kSCC) (44.3 %). All subtypes were predominantly found in the maxillary sinus except for adenocarcinoma and neuroendocrine carcinomas (SNEC), which were most frequently located in the ethmoidal sinus. The majority of the patients with a known T stage was diagnosed in tumor stage T4 (60.8 %). The overall 5-year relative survival (RS) for all patients with PSC was 52 %. RS dropped from 93 % for T1 stage tumors to 39 % for T4 tumors. RS was 58 % for N0 and 31 % for N+ cases, 54 % for M0 and 27 % for M1 cases.
Conclusion
Age-adjusted incidence for PSC is low and has been stable for the observed 11-year period. RS decreases continuously with increasing T-, N- and M-stage.
期刊介绍:
Cancer Epidemiology is dedicated to increasing understanding about cancer causes, prevention and control. The scope of the journal embraces all aspects of cancer epidemiology including:
• Descriptive epidemiology
• Studies of risk factors for disease initiation, development and prognosis
• Screening and early detection
• Prevention and control
• Methodological issues
The journal publishes original research articles (full length and short reports), systematic reviews and meta-analyses, editorials, commentaries and letters to the editor commenting on previously published research.
