| Abstract: | Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a common head and neck malignancy, endemic in East Asia and South East Asia. The rate of incidence varied in different countries based on the relative exposure of the population to different risk factors. The majority of NPC cases are squamous cell carcinoma subtypes. Primary nasopharyngeal papillary adenocarcinoma (NPAC) is an extremely rare subtype of NPC with characteristic adenocarcinoma cell structure. We present a case of NPAC treated by an endoscopic transnasal nasopharyngectomy with a successful outcome. |
