We report a case of nasopharyngeal carcinoma with brain metastasis of a 69-year-old man. The patient presented with blindness and a huge mass over right upper neck. The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed right nasopharyngeal tumor and metastatic lesion in bilateral occipital regions. The bony x-ray showed diffuse osteoblastic metastases. The brain lesion was pathology-proven through the computed-tomographic guidance stereotactic biopsy.
