摘要：

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is a disease with a remarkable racial and geographical distribution. In most parts of the world it is a rare condition and in only a handful of places does this low risk profile alter. These include the Southern Chinese,(1,2) Eskimos and other Arctic natives,(3,4) inhabitants of South-East Asia and also the populations of North Africa and Kuwait(5-8).
