A providential ptosis revealing a tumor of the cavum
Nasopharyngeal cancer is an endemic tumor of the Mediterranean rim. The usual clinical symptoms are dominated by cervical lymphadenopathy, otological and rhinological signs. Ophthalmological involvement is rarely indicative of the tumor and is seen especially at the late stage of the disease. The treatment of choice is radiotherapy associated with concomitant chemotherapy in certain evolved forms. We report a case of cavum cancer that was revealed by ptosis.
