Nasal and Paranasal Tumors

Treatment of Children

A child-friendly environment, the latest advances in treatment and highly skilled otorhinolaryngologists with experience treating children are all part of Mayo Clinic's program to treat nasal and paranasal tumors in children. Children who need inpatient care stay at Mayo Eugenio Litta Children's Hospital in Minnesota.

Specialists approach adult and pediatric cases of nasal and paranasal tumors with many of the same diagnostic and treatment options for nasal and paranasal tumors. Treatment options include surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation. Sometimes a combination of these treatments offers the best chance of success.

Mayo Clinic is a member of the Children's Oncology Group. This national consortium of cancer centers establishes effective treatment approaches for pediatric tumors. Specialists at Mayo Clinic are among the nation's leading cancer researchers and develop protocols that become standard procedures.

Treatment Team

Children with nasal and paranasal tumors are treated by experienced specialists in Otorhinolaryngology. Other specialists, such as pediatric oncologists, are consulted as the child's condition warrants.
