Abstract
|
|
|
The major pathological type of the nasopharyngeal carcinoma is squamous cell carcinoma; on the other hand, adenocarcinoma of the nasopharynx is extremely rare. We report a case of a 68-year old male presenting a nasopharynx mass, which was revealed as adenocarcinoma, which could not be specified as any transoral tumor resection. Additional radiotherapy was applied. There is no evidence of recurrence during the seven years of follow-up.
