    Glossary Nasopharyngeal carcinoma

    cancer originating in the upper part of the throat

    Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a type of cancer that originates in the nasopharynx, which is the upper part of the throat located behind the nose. It is relatively rare and is often associated with genetic factors, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection, and certain dietary habits. NPC can cause symptoms such as nasal congestion, nosebleeds, hearing loss, and swollen lymph nodes in the neck. Early detection and treatment, which may include radiation therapy, chemotherapy, or surgery, are crucial for improving outcomes.
