Ten children with lymphoepithelioma of the nasopharynx were reviewed. Six had regional spread at presentation and four developed distant metastases. Seven patients are alive, six free of disease.

Five patients presented later with endocrine abnormalities probably related to the radiotherapy; these endocrine problems were minimal and responded to therapy.
