ABSTRACT: Primary salivary gland-type
carcinoma of the nasopharynx is a rare malignancy with aggressive clinical behavior
and poor prognosis. Few cases have been reported in the literature. We report the
case of a salivary gland-type carcinoma of the nasopharynx diagnosed in a 70-year-old
woman managed in department of radiotherapy at Hassan II University Hospital in
Morocco. The patient received a total of 70 Gy of radiations, which were divided
into 2 Gy per session during 7 weeks. Follow-up was performed regularly, including
nasal endoscopic examination and nasopharyngeal CT. Evolution was marked by disease
control after 12 months of follow-up. The aim of this work is to show the rarity
of this entity, describe clinical, radiological and histological features and finally
discuss the treatment management.
