This highly malignant tumor can further be divided into central PNET (cPNET) and peripheral PNET (pPNET). The PNET Peripheral PNET occurs outside the central and sympathetic nervous system, often occurs in the thoracopulmonary region (Askin tumor),retroperitonium, and extremities and rarely in the head and neck. Recent studies showed that pPNET and ES have many similarities in histomorphology, immunohistochemistry, and molecular biology. They are grouped as the ES/PNET family and are difficult to distinguish from each. Peripheral PNET mainly affects children and adolescents and rarely adults. female/ male predominance? Patients often presented with rapidly enlarging masses. The imaging features of pPNET of the head and neck are nonspecific. In pPNET patients with tumors originating from soft tissues, the tumors often demonstrated ill-defined,soft tissue masses and exhibited aggressive spreading to the neighboring tissue. The tumor often demonstrated isodensity with patchyhypodensity areas on unenhanced CT images. On T1WI, the tumor demonstrated isointensity or slightly hypointensity; on T2WI, the tumor demonstrated heterogeneous hyperintensity. The tumor demonstrated heterogeneous enhancement on contrast-enhanced CT/T1WI. Calcification is rare. Cystic necrotic component and haemorrhagic change are usually obvious. Poor prognosis. The overall 5-year survival rates for localized and metastatic tumours range from 65% to 74% and 25% to 45%, respectively. ![]() ![]() |
