Abstract excerpt
Inverted (Schneiderian) sinonasal papilloma (ISP) is a neoplasm derived from mucosa of the sinonasal tract characterized by local aggressive growth, a tendency to recur and an association with sinonasal carcinoma. The etiology of ISP remains unclear. Recently, identical mutations in exons 19 and 20 of the oncogene EGFR were reported in ISP and ISP-associated sinonasal carcinoma. Nevertheless, it remains unclear...
