Childhood Hodgkin's Disease rarely involves the nasopharynx or the brain. This is a report of a 12-year-old boy who presented with a 3-month history of headache, diplopia, dizziness, and early morning vomiting. Computerized axial tomography (CT) scan revealed a nasopharyngeal mass with intracranial extension through the skull base. Biopsy of the nasopharyngeal mass and an upper cervical lymph node was consistent with Hodgkin's disease of mixed cellularity. This, to the author's knowledge, is the first report of a child having the combination of nasopharyngeal and intracranial involvement in Hodgkin's disease.
儿童霍奇金病很少累及鼻咽部或脑部。本文报告一名12岁男孩，有3个月的头痛、复视、头晕和清晨呕吐病史。计算机断层扫描（CT）显示鼻咽部肿物并经颅底向颅内蔓延。鼻咽部肿物及上颈部淋巴结活检结果符合混合细胞型霍奇金病。据作者所知，这是首例儿童霍奇金病合并鼻咽部和颅内受累的报告。
