On physical examination, a normal anterior rhinoscopy, posterior rhinoscopy: vegetative lesion with crusts, which affects the soft palate and uvula. That does not leave to see the Eustachian tube or the left choanae. For oroscopy hemitaste bombment of soft left. It is realized tomography with contrast is performed, where it is observed: tumor imaging with density of soft parts occupying the nasopharynx and oropharynx descends, with little contrast enhancement, without invasion of skull base, prevertebral fascia or great vessels. Realizes recession carries lower endoscopic lesions. Pathology reports: malignant epithelial neoplastic proliferation of high degree, consisting of small cell nuclei.
