Abstract

The nasopharynx is located at the crossroads between the skull base superiorly, the nasal cavity anteriorly, and the oropharynx inferiorly. Disease processes can spread to and from the nasopharynx through well-defined anatomic pathways. The focus of this chapter will be on nasopharyngeal carcinoma, with a brief overview of a few other lesions.
