Overview
Based on the duration of symptoms, esthesioneuroblastoma may be classified into two subtypes neuroblastoma proper and neuroendocrine carcinomas.[1]
Classification
- Neuroblastomas proper
- Neuroblastomas proper has a histologic presentation similar to that of peripheral neuroblastomas of childhood.
- Esthesioneuroblastomas is composed of sheets of poorly demarcated groups of cells separated by fine connective tissue trabeculae.
- The cells are small and typically show no mitotic activity.between the cells.
- Rosettes of the Homer-Wright type are present.
- On electronic microscopy, there is the presence of a dendritic cytoplasmic process with accumulations of small core granules within the process.
- Neuroblastomas proper contain fibrillary material
- Neuroendocrine carcinomas.
- Neuroendocrine carcinomas is admixture with glands.
- In neuroendocrine carcinomas, a neurofibrillary component is absent, and the growth pattern is that of solid nests without rosettes.
- Dense core granules similar to those of neuroblastoma are present in the cytoplasm and cytoplasmic extensions.
