Will nasopharyngeal carcinoma affect the increase of alpha-fetoprotein?

1. Patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma can undergo a biopsy. There should be no relationship between nasopharyngeal carcinoma and alpha-fetoprotein. If nasopharyngeal carcinoma is diagnosed, go to the hospital for treatment in time, eat more foods that improve immunity, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, pay attention to dietary conditioning to control the development of the disease. The alpha-fetoprotein value for the general population is ≤25ng/mL. If this value is too high, then it may be related to malignant tumors. Further testing must be done. Only in this way can we determine what treatment measures and means to take.

2. Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is not specific, and the tumor marker alpha-fetoprotein often indicates gastrointestinal tumors.
