Comparison of Open and Endoscopic Approaches in the Resection of Esthesioneuroblastoma.

CONCLUSION: Although not statistically significant, there is a trend toward increased overall survival with an endoscopic approach in patients undergoing surgery for ENB as compared to an open approach, regardless of Kadish stage. An endoscopic approach is an adequate alternative to an open approach for the surgical treatment of ENB.
