Abstract

Nasopharyngeal Hodgkin’s lymphoma is a rare disorder. We describe a case of a 24-year-old male with Hodgkin’s lymphoma (HL) primarily originating from the nasopharynx. He presented with symptoms including snoring and bilateral nasal congestion. After evaluation, endoscopic surgery was performed. Surprisingly, the pathological result proved to be classic HL. Postoperative MRI showed that the tumor was completely resected, and PET-CT was further examined. No lesions were found in other places. Shortly thereafter, the patient was transferred to the hematology department for chemotherapy, and the patient was followed up for 5 months without tumor recurrence. As new problems have been detected in medical management, it is vital to put the HL of the nasopharynx into a new perspective.
