A member asked:
Why is there bleeding in nasopharyngeal carcinoma?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lesions irritated.: Nasopharyngeal cancers cause bleeding probably because the lesions are not always well differentiated, and thus are easily irritated. Because these are usually squamous, and they may have a lot of blood vessels and break apart easily, causing bleeding.
