INTRODUCTION
Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC) is the most common malignant head and neck tumor in Indonesia. Nowadays, the management of NPC still becomes a problem. It happens because the etiology is still uncertain, early symptoms are not typical, and the location of the nasopharyngeal is hidden, so early diagnosis is often late.
The obstacles that usually faced in the handling NPC are most of the patients come at advanced stages (stage III and IV), some even come with a bad general condition. In addition NPC is known as a malignant tumor that has high potential to spread over the region and distant metastases. This situation caused the management of NPC to produce unsatisfactory results.
Considering above conditions, it is important to make a center of excellence that is specifically concerned regarding NPC. The 1st Center of Excellence for Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma of Universitas Sumatera Utara was formed with the aim to enhance the degree of science and increase the cooperation among experts. Beside that, this center of excellence also eager to devote themselves to the community by contributing in determining various ways of management and therapy. It is hoped that can be applied to help increasing public awareness which is expected to reduce the morbidity and mortality of this disease.
International Conference of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma 2018 was initiated and organized by the Center of Excellence Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Universitas Sumatera Utara. This event aimed at providing opportunity to present and share the most recent and innovations in Medical and Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Research.
The Center of Excellence Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Universitas Sumatera Utara is pleased to announce that The International Conference of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma 2018 will be held in Medan, Indonesia on 6th-7th December 2018.
