The initial clinical symptoms that are less specific often cause patients coming with advanced stage conditions. Therefore, the study of clinical and pathological profiles of NPC patients are required. Objective: To find out the clinicopathological profile of NPC patients in Dr. Soetomo General Hospital in 2016-2019. Methods: This study was descriptive research with a retrospective study using medical records of NPC patients in Dr. Soetomo General Hospital from 2016 to 2019.

Out of 192 patients, 22 patients had post-therapy response based on histopathological data. Conclusion: NPC patients in Dr. Soetomo General Hospital in 2016-2019 were found in the range of 14-77 years old, most patients were in the age group 41-≤50 years old (66 patients, 34%).
