Article InfoIntroduction: Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is common in China and Southeast Asia, including Indonesia. The cases are often diagnosed in an advanced stage with a poor prognosis. Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence of anemia in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients in the ENT-HNS Department West Nusa Tenggara Hospital. Methods: the methods of this research are a descriptive study that used data from the medical record of West Nusa Tenggara Hospital. The data were obtained between April 2017 to September 2017. Result: During the study periods, we obtained 32 cases. 75% of patients were male and 25% female, with ratio 3:1. According to the age, patients were distributed from 28 to 69 years old with peak incidence at 41-60 years old. Most patients were stage IV (68.75%). There was 87.51% patient with anemia in this research. However,the highest number was found mild anemia 59.38% and the most types of anemia were hypochromic microcytic. Discussion: In this study, patients with advanced stages were 93.75%, consist of stage IV (68.75%) and stage III (25%), followed by stage II 6.25%, while stage I was not found. This shows that patients usually come at an advanced stage because of the low awareness of the NPC in medical personnel in Indonesia. Conclusion: The incidence of anemia in a patient with nasopharyngeal cancer in West Nusa Tenggara Hospital is 87.51%. Most of them were mild grade and hypochromic microcytic type.
Introduction: Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is the most common malignant tumor in the ENT-HNS were the highest of all malignant tumors of the head and neck. Malnutrition and cachexia is a common problem in cancer patients and impact on quality of life and survival. Anemia is a major problem in patients with nasopharyngeal cancer receiving chemotherapy or radiotherapy. Objective: Determine the relationship of nasopharyngeal carcinoma stage with anemia and nutritional status. Material and methods: This study used cross sectional analytic method. Data were obtained from medical records of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma who were treated in province hospital West Nusa Tenggara period January 2018 to December 2018. Data collected include the identity, diagnosis, hemoglobin value, weight and height. Having analyzed the data collected are looking for is there a relationship between stage nasopharyngeal carcinoma with anemia and nutritional status. Results: In this study, Shapiro-Wilk normality test. Anova is then performed to analyze the relationship stage nasopharyngeal carcinoma with anemia status obtained 95% CI, p value 0.847, there is no difference between stage nasopharyngeal carcinoma with anemia. Kruskal Wallis test to analyze the relationship with BMI (body mass index) with stage nasopharyngeal carcinoma obtained 95% CI, p value 0.565. There is no difference in BMI with stage nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Conclusion: There is a tendency to lower Hb in patients with nasopharyngeal cancer further stage although there is no significant difference between each stage. The same thing was found in BMI, BMI decreased tendency in patients with advanced nasopharyngeal cancer although there was no statistically significant difference.
