[Secondary neoplasms in upper respiratory and digestive tracts]
Abstract
Patients enduring cancer of the upper respiratory tract present greater risk of developing a second neoplasm, either synchronous or metasynchronously. Possible causes of this major risk are studied, giving a special attention to the role released for the treatment done in the primary neoplasm, in the later appearance of the second one.
