Treatment Stage I Paranasal Sinus and Nasal Cavity Cance

Treatment depends on the type of cancer and where the cancer is found.

  • If cancer is in the maxillary sinus, treatment will probably be surgery to remove the cancer. Radiation therapy may be given after surgery.
  • If cancer is in the ethmoid sinus, treatment may be one of the following:
    1. Radiation therapy if the cancer cannot be removed with surgery.
    2. Surgery followed by radiation therapy.
  • If cancer is in the sphenoid sinus, treatment will probably be radiation therapy.
  • If cancer is in the nasal cavity, treatment may be surgery, radiation therapy, or both.
  • If the cancer is an inverting papilloma, treatment will probably be surgery.
  • If the cancer is a melanoma or sarcoma, treatment will probably be surgery. For certain types of sarcoma, surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy may be given.
  • If the cancer is a midline granuloma, treatment will probably be radiation therapy.
  • If cancer is in the nose (nasal vestibule), treatment may be surgery or radiation therapy.
