Abstract: Neuroendocrine carcinoma(NEC) of the tonsil is extremely rare that exhibits highly malignant and poorly prognosis. Only a few of case reports and the optial treatment is still uncertain. Here, the current study presents a case of 60-year-old male with neck mass rapidly growing for four months. It was diagnosed a primary tonsil neuroendocrine carcinoma. And he was treated by one cycle of cisplatin and etoposide. It had no effect and the tumor was rapidly progressed. With review of the literatures, the nomenclature, clinicopathological characteristics and treatment modalities of this rare tumor are discussed.
