Abstract

Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma is a malignant disease that appears in the nasopharyngeal area, namely the area above the throat and behind the nose. Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is an example of malignancy in the THT-KL and is the 4th most common malignancy case after breast cancer, cervical cancer, and lung cancer in Indonesia. The etiology of nasopharyngeal carcinoma is multifactorial, namely infection from Epstein Barr virus, genetic, and related to the environment such as consumption of salted fish, smoking habits, food preservatives, mosquito coils, and wood smoke. This case was found in a female patient, 52 years old, who came to Dr. Hospital. H. Abdoel Moeloek with complaints of headache since 2 months ago. Other complaints felt by patients are double vision, ringing in the ears, face feels numb on one side, pelo talk and tongue falling to one side, and nausea and weakness. There was a complaint of a lump appearing on the right neck since 5 months ago before complaints of headache appeared. The results of physical and supporting examinations and biopsy examinations have been carried out and the results obtained refer to the diagnosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Treatment carried out on patients is symptomatic to reduce symptoms and is referred to a higher hospital for further treatment.
