In this study, we present a systematic review and pooled analysis on patients specifically with sinonasal NC (SNC), as well as report a case of a patient with extraordinary survival following presentation with an NC of the maxillary sinus.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Among 3042 articles retrieved, 27 were included in the final analysis. Clinical outcomes were described for a patient presenting with SNC at a tertiary academic medical center. Predictors of survival were evaluated with Kaplan\u2013Meier (KM) and Cox regression analyses.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>There were 45 patients with a relatively even gender distribution. The most common presenting symptoms were nasal obstruction (54%) and headache\/facial pain (49%). Common primary sites of malignancy were the nasal cavity (50%), maxillary sinus (22%), and ethmoid sinus (16%). In terms of treatment, 31% underwent oncologic resection, 64% received radiation therapy, and 71% received chemotherapy. The overall cohort survival rate was 40% with an average survival of 12.4\u2009months. The presence of nerve palsies (OR\u2009=\u200916.6, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001) was a substantial negative predictor for survival. Oncological resection with negative margins was associated with improved survival on KM analysis (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.05). We also report a case of a 47\u2010year\u2010old female who presented with a left maxillary SNC with extra\u2010sinus extension. She underwent a combined endoscopic\/open oncologic resection with negative margins followed by chemoradiation. The patient remains alive 52\u2009months after presentation.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>SNC remains an understudied clinical entity. Oncologic resection with negative margins is associated with improved survival. The presence of nerve palsies worsens overall survival. Further, large\u2010scale studies are needed to determine optimal treatment protocols.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/hed.28129","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,12]],"date-time":"2025-03-12T01:39:40Z","timestamp":1741743580000},"page":"2123-2136","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Sinonasal <scp>NUT<\/scp> Carcinoma: A Systematic Review With Pooled Analysis and Report of a Case of Extraordinary Survival"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"47","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1903-8802","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"David","family":"Ahmadian","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Medicine University of Arizona  Tucson Arizona USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5527-6280","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shireen","family":"Samargandy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology\u2014Head &amp;
