See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
It is believed that NPC most commonly spreads intracranially via the FL or by direct erosion.Perineural spread through the FO is an important route which explains why with CT evidence of cavernous sinus involvement,there may be no skull base erosion.These findings are best seen on MRI.
