Resumen

El neuroblastoma olfatorio (NBO) es un tumor maligno poco frecuente que se origina de las células neuroepiteliales olfativas. Su diagnóstico precoz es difícil debido a la poca especificidad de los síntomas que presentan los pacientes. Las pruebas de imagen juegan un papel importante en su diagnóstico y en la planificación quirúrgica, por lo que es importante que los radiólogos conozcan sus hallazgos y las diferentes clasificaciones que ayudarán a elegir el tratamiento más adecuado para cada tumor.

Abstract

Olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB) is a rare malignant tumor that originates from olfactory neuroepithelial cells. Its early diagnosis is difficult due to the low specificity of the symptoms. Imaging tests play an important role in its diagnosis and surgical planning so it is important that radiologists know their findings and the different classifications that will help to choose the most appropriate treatment for each tumor.
