The incidence, treatment regimens, and survival rates for nasopharyngeal carcinoma in China, one of the most common cancers in that country, are reviewed. Although treated almost exclusively with megavoltage photon therapy, in some cancer centers intracavitary radium insertions are used to increase the radiation dose to the primary tumor site. A histological study of these tumors shows that patients whose tumors are well-differentiated and contain an abundance of lymphocytes have the best prognosis.
对中国最常见的癌症之一鼻咽癌的发病率、治疗方案及生存率进行了综述。尽管几乎完全采用兆伏级光子疗法进行治疗，但在一些癌症中心，腔内镭植入被用于增加对原发肿瘤部位的辐射剂量。对这些肿瘤的组织学研究表明，肿瘤分化良好且含有大量淋巴细胞的患者预后最佳。
