1. NPC claimed to be “Guangdong cancer”, occurred in the provinces in South China, the world’s 80 percent of nasopharyngeal carcinoma occurred in China.
2. The high rate of nasopharyngeal cancer misdiagnosis, the early diagnosis of only about 10%, almost 30 years ago, although CT ﹑ MRI instrument to enter advanced clinical checkups, but no symptoms of nasopharyngeal carcinoma lesions characteristic of ﹑ concealed location, and other factors, could easily lead to delayed diagnosis , individual reports misdiagnosis rate of 48.2 percent to 82.4 percent, so early diagnosis ﹑ early biopsy is to improve the survival rate of nasopharyngeal carcinoma and an important measure to reduce the mortality rate.
3. NPC common symptoms for blood T ﹑ epistaxis ﹑ nasal ﹑ tinnitus and hearing loss ﹑ headache ﹑ neck mass, and so on, may be advanced with a skull and cranial nerves violations, a corresponding symptoms, distant metastasis to the Chen Shui-bian bone metastases largest, followed by the liver and other lung ﹑.
4. Because of nasopharyngeal carcinoma in intracranial deeper cavity ﹑ gap ﹑ around the neck, complex anatomical structure, it is quite difficult surgery, radiation therapy is the preferred means of local treatment.
5.95% above the NPC is a squamous cell carcinoma, and poor differentiation, radiation sensitive, can serve to “instantly” by the recent results, it is worth mentioning that systemic therapy is the long-term effect was nasopharyngeal carcinoma clinical treatment pursuit of the main objective.
6. Nasopharyngeal cancer is a systemic disease partial performance, early detection ﹑ systemic anticancer treatment ﹑ specific individualized treatment of nasopharyngeal cancer treatment is the basic principle of systemic therapy has been effectively control the disease and prevent distant metastasis in patients with long-term survival is and the key to the clinical treatment.
7. Vigilance neck mass ﹑ clinical symptoms disappeared after the patient alleviate psychological paralysis to prevent excessive radiotherapy and chemotherapy is not appropriate to the harm caused to patients.
8. In the development of long-term treatment programs should be detailed understanding of the specific conditions, including clinical analysis ﹑ dose radiation therapy after ﹑ ﹑ partial response ﹑ other state organs, reasonable long-term treatment program directly related to the prognosis of the patients.
9. Nasopharyngeal cancer prognosis and found sooner or later ﹑ pathological types ﹑ individual differences in age ﹑ ﹑ treatment-related factors such as selection, with long-term survival and the survival of all patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma is the goal pursued.
10. Pharyngeal cancer patients should be reviewed every two to March a head and neck CT ﹑ abdominal ultrasonography ﹑ nasal cavity inspection.
11. Nasopharyngeal cancer after radiotherapy to the care, maintenance facial skin clean ﹑ maintain oral health, pharyngeal dry counterparts ﹑ serious medicine for patients with appropriate conditioning.
