Abstract
Superselective chemoembolization (SC) is currently a promising method for the treatment of the head and neck cancer. We describe a clinical case of successful combined (SC+ general chemotherapy) treatment of malignant nasopharyngeal neoplasm in a 40yearold patient with bilateral spread ofT4N23M0, resulting in hearing loss on both sides, significant difficulty in nasal breathing and complicated by nasal bleeding. Quality of life of the patient improved significantly.
