Computed x-ray tomography in the study of 16 undifferentiated epitheliomas of the cavum nasopharyngeal type in children]

CT scans were performed in 16 children with undifferentiated epitheliomas of the cavum nasopharyngis type. The CT scan provided the most precise data during initial investigations, especially clear information being obtained on any intra-orbital or intracranial extension, which may occur without clinical signs. The scan is also a valid method for determining efficacy during treatment, and for the early detection of recurrences.
