Summary

To investigate the incidence, predictive markers, and survival impact of massive nasal bleeding in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients who received curative radiotherapy (RT) with/without chemotherapy. A total of 1327 patients with previously untreated, biopsy-proven NPC, and no distant metastasis were retrospective reviewed. Investigators analyzed the occurrence rates of massive nasal bleeding between different characteristics and tried to identify important predictive factors. Investigators compared overall survival between patients with and without massive nasal bleeding by Kaplan-Meier method.
