We conclude that sinonasal carcinomas arising from papillomas are mainly defined by overexpressed developmental/homeobox genes, which provide the potential for transformation/plasticity, along with differentiation and proliferation behavior of neoplastic cells. Our results support HOXA9 and CA9 as biomarkers for carcinomas, with CA9 emerging as a predictive marker of recurrence.
