The authors deal in their paper with the problem of nondifferentiated carcinoma in childhood. They draw attention to data in the literature which report an incidence of 1-15% and compare with these data their own experience according to which in 158 patients with carcinoma of the nasopharynx there were seven children. They emphasize the inexpressive character of symptoms and thus the relatively long time which elapses before causal anti-tumourous treatment is started in child patients. They emphasize the importance of a uniform diagnostic protocol where they accentuate the directoscopy of the Rosenmüller fossa, tympanometry, computed tomography and draw attention to the advantages of EBV serology and mapping according to the HLA system. As far as treatment is concerned, they recommend radiotherapy, supplemented by adjuvant administration of the transfer factor and Mitolactol. In the conclusion the authors emphasize the necessity of team work to ensure correct interpretation of results from the diagnostic sphere and to ensure treatment in the initial stages when therapy gives the most permanent results.
