Abstract

Primary small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma is uncommon in head and neck region, with occasional cases in nasopharynx. Distinction from other round cell tumors is imperative to ensure optimal patient management. We present a case of a 30-year-old woman who presented with a rapidly growing nasopharyngeal mass.
