Abstract

This is the official guideline endorsed by the specialty associations involved in the care of head and neck cancer patients in the UK. Although much commoner in the eastern hemisphere, with an age-standardised incidence rate of 0.39 per 100 000 population, cancers of the nasopharynx form one of the rarer subsites in the head and neck.¹ This paper provides recommendations on the work up and management of nasopharyngeal cancer based on the existing evidence base for this condition.
