The nasopharynx is the part of the throat that opens into the nasal cavity. In terms of being the uppermost part, it is also referred to as the 'upper pharynx' or colloquially as the 'nasal'. The head is located in front of the nose and the throat on both sides and the middle ear with the Eustachian tube. Cancers that occur in this region are called "nasopharyngeal cancers".

The effects of the general mass can be observed in the nasal cavity (due to the one-sided nose, bloody nasal flow) and the nasal passages. In addition, there may be a palpable or double wrong at the length of death.
