The degree of oropharyngeal dysphagia accosiated with the long time of post-chemoradiation in NPC is not yet clearly known. Objective : To analysis the degree of oropharyngeal dysphagia accosiated with the long time of post-chemoradiation in NPC. Method : Analysis observational research with cross sectional design.

Long time of post-chemoradiation (p = 0.451), type of chemotherapy (p = 0.267), and therapeutic modality (p = 0.402) were not related to the degree of oropharyngeal dysphagia in NPC.
