Nasopharyngeal mucoepidermoid carcinoma is a rare entity, for which surgical resection is the treatment of choice. The open technique is considered the standard approach, but this often results in significant morbidities such as trismus, dysphagia, and neurologic deficits. The advent of endoscopic endonasal techniques has made endoscopic resection a viable alternative to the open approach in terms of access, adequacy of resection, and lesser surgical morbidity. The authors describe a patient of recurrent nasopharyngeal mucoepidermoid carcinoma that was resected entirely endoscopically. The authors also present a literature review of this little-known disease and a comparison between the endoscopic and open approach.
