Expression of STK15, EGFR, p53 and p16INK4A by Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC) of the Nasal Cavity and the Paranasal Sinuses

In addition the presentation in various subsites of the nose and the paranasal sinuses and the existence of multiple tumor histopathologies complicate an execution of a study.
