| Abstract |
Sinonasal teratocarcinosarcoma is a rare and aggressive malignancy with histological features of both carcinosarcoma and teratoma. The optimal management of this malignancy is unclear, with most patients being managed by a combination of surgery and radiotherapy. We describe an 83-year-old white woman with sinonasal teratocarcinosarcoma of her left nasal cavity treated with surgical debulking initially with radiological evidence of residual disease which was treated with radiotherapy (60 Gy in 30 fractions). A follow-up examination at 2 years showed no evidence of recurrence. In cases of sinonasal teratocarcinosarcoma with residual disease post-surgery, radiotherapy alone can be an effective option. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 18 July 2017.
All research outputs
#20,434,884
of 22,988,380 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Medical Case Reports
#3,507
of 3,942 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#275,827
of 316,704 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Medical Case Reports
#56
of 77 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,988,380 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,942 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.0. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 316,704 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 77 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
