The Risk of Second Malignant Tumors after Definitive Treatment of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma: Three Case Reports and Literature Review
Abstract: Introduction: Patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) have an increased incidence of developing second malignant tumors (SMTs). This may possibly be explained by the concept of “field cancerization” or “condemned mucosa syndrome”, implying the importance of other risk factors like smoking, alcohol consumption, genetic factors and viral infections. However, risk factors for SMTs have not been documented well, especially in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Objective: Evaluate the presence …
