Impact of Multiple Primary Cancers on the Prognosis of Early-stage Oropharyngeal and Hypopharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A Single-center Retrospective Study
Despite favorable DSS outcomes in early-stage oropharyngeal and hypopharyngeal cancers, OS remains compromised due to secondary malignancies. These findings underscore the critical need for early, isolated detection of pharyngeal carcinoma through interdepartmental collaboration, particularly with gastroenterologists and screening physicians, to enhance comprehensive cancer control and improve patient survival.
