Nasoph aryngealde nocarcinoma (NAC) is a rare malignancy, accounting for lessthan 0.5% of nasopharyngealtumors. We report the case of a 51 year old man presentingwith right ptosis and a frontal infiltrative lesion, ultimately diagnosed as moderately differentiated NAC with bone metastasis. He was treated with palliative chemotherapy and whole brain radiotherapy. NAC exhibits distinct clinicalbehavior, with a lower rate of nodal involvement but a tendency for cranial nerve invasion and local recurrence. Due to itsrarity, treatmentis not standardized, but a multimodal approachremains the most effective strategy. Further research is needed to optimize management and improve outcomes.
