Sinonasal Undifferentiated Carcinoma

Definition

Sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma (SNUC) is a rare and aggressive form of cancer that originates in the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses. It is characterized by its poorly differentiated cells, making it difficult to identify the specific cell type. Due to its aggressive nature, early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for improving patient outcomes.
