As part of nasopharyngeal carcinoma hidden, often there are no symptoms of early cancer. In a small number of patients with T sucking blood or nose, the mouth can spit out T solution with bloodshot, or the side of tinnitus symptoms. Easily ignore these symptoms patients. Even to see a doctor, often by non-specialist doctors suspected the flu, or just inflammation symptomatic treatment. Little for the need to examine the nasopharynx. NPC common clinical manifestations are as follows:
(I) eyes, ears, nose symptoms: As nasopharyngeal tumors increased, the surface rupture tumor necrosis caused bleeding, the patient can occur repeatedly Caledonia blood, epistaxis, and occasionally also have massive bleeding. After blocking tumor nostrils are blocked at the phenomenon. If the Eustachian tube extrusion nasopharyngeal tumors mouth, have tinnitus, hearing loss, earache or tympanic membrane invagination. When violations of the nearby orbital tumors, or to affect the cranial nerves at the orbital patients have diplopia, visual impairment, or eyeball process.
(Ii) headache: migraine often mainly to the top of the temporal The most common headache. Pillow also have the pain. Headache causes and nasopharyngeal nearby blood vessels, nerves, bone or the tumor effects. Fixed, sustained, severe headache should pay special attention to, it may be due to damage caused by the base of skull bone.
(Iii) cranial nerve damage: people have 12 pairs of cranial nerves, which, most likely be affected is the abducens nerve, patients will have symptoms of diplopia. This was followed by the trigeminal nerve, and the pulley oculomotor nerve involvement is manifested mainly as a disease lateral eye fixed on the eyelid ptosis, the pupil to expand, face and body felt numb tongue, mouth opening today jaw deflection. In addition, the hypoglossal nerve, the vagus nerve and also due to the parapharyngeal space has been invaded or neck lymph node metastasis oppression caused dysfunction, expressed as lateral tongue muscle atrophy disease, Shen She preferred tongue disease, the side of the sound dumb, dysphagia, Song Jian unable disease side.
(Iv) cervical lymphadenopathy: NPC higher rate of cervical lymph node metastasis, and earlier there. Cervical lymph node metastasis common position is on the level of the neck muscles earlobe deep. Slightly larger than the beginning of lymph nodes, can be slightly activities, painless, after lymph node size of the increase, the increase in the number, and the gradual integration fixed. Cervical lymph node top-down development until supraclavicular area. About half of nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients left neck mass Hospital.
Overall, the NPC has seven major symptoms and signs of the three. Seven symptoms were epistaxis, nasal obstruction, tinnitus, deafness, headache, face Ma Tei, diplopia; three signs is a new biological nasopharyngeal, cervical lymphadenopathy, or cranial nerve in a branch of Paralysis. In each of the patients who have mentioned above is not the full levy
