  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

CT scans arc able to reveal the extent of car-cinoma of the nasopharynx (NPC) clearly, andthe correct area to be treated is easily deter-mined. Radiation therapy has been and still is the primary treatment for NPC at the authors' institution and most of others. However, CT scans showed that NPC did not always disap-pear after 60 Gy irradiation. We performed sur-gical treatment to eradicate such residual tumor through a transpterygoid approach. Four patients were operated on by this method. One of them died of multiple metastases while others are alive with no evidence of disease. Surgical technique and complications of this operation were presented.
