If the nasopharyngeal cancer occurs in pharyngeal crypt, it may lead to the compression of the pharyngeal opening of Eustachian tube, resulting in tinnitus, hearing loss and other symptoms. And some patients with locally advanced stage may be accompanied by headache, diplopia, vision loss, decreased sense of smell, neural deafness, eye fixation, etc. after diagnosis, and they may also show inconvenient swallowing activities, tongue extension deviation and hoarseness.
