Abstract

We present the case of a 50-year-old patient with a history of undifferentiated nasopharyngeal carcinoma treated 6 years ago with chemotherapy combined with radiation therapy with intensity modulation and who currently has asymptomatic osteoradionecrosis of the base of the skull diagnosticated thanks to the CT examination objectifying atypical bone lesions of moth-eaten appearance.
