The association of squamous cell carcinomas of the nasopharynx with Epstein–Barr virus shows geographical variation reminiscent of Burkitt's lymphoma

1997-10-01

Abstract excerpt

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is rare in most parts of the world but occurs with high incidence in certain regions, such as South-East Asia. Two major histological types of NPC are recognized, non-keratinizing carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. Non-keratinizing NPCs, which include undifferentiated NPC, are invariably associated with Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) infection, regardless of the geographical or ethnic...
