Basaloid-squamous carcinoma of the nasal cavity.
Basaloid-squamous carcinoma is a recently characterized, aggressive tumour occurring in the hypopharynx, larynx and base of tongue. We report a unique case involving the nasal cavity of a patient with a history of radiation therapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma, raising the possibility that basaloid-squamous carcinoma can be radiation-associated.
