Abstract
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the most common carcinoma in the H&N (head and neck) region, in which squamous cells show variability in differentiation like basaloid, glandular, and spindle cells. Spindle cell carcinoma (SpCC) is an unusual variant of SCC that is aggressive in nature and has the ability to recur and metastasize. The presence of malignant mesenchymal and squamous epithelial cells gives it a biphasic nature. So, we present a case of SpCC of buccal mucosa in a 45-year-old male who had an ulcerated growth on his left buccal mucosa that had been present for two years.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Evidence on the risk of second primary cancer (SPC) following primary laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) is limited, especially in Europe. METHODS Patients diagnosed with primary LSCC from 1953-2018 were retrieved from the Finnish Cancer Registry. A total of 6241 LSCC patients were identified adding to 49,393 person-years (PY) of follow-up until the end of 2019. Only one patient emigrated and was lost to follow-up. Both standardized incidence ratios (SIR) and excess absolute risk (EAR) per 1000 person-years at risk (PYR) of second primary cancer (SPC) were calculated relative to the general population. Only non-laryngeal SPCs diagnosed six months after diagnosis of primary LSCC were included. RESULTS A SPC was diagnosed in 1244 LSCC patients (20% of all LSCC patients) over the 65-year period, predominantly in men (92%, n = 1170). Out of all SPCs, 34% were diagnosed within 0.5 to 5 years and 66% after 5 years from primary LSCC. Among male patients, the overall SIR for SPC at any location was 1.61 (95% CI: 1.52-1.71), corresponding to 9.49 excess SPCs per 1000 PYR (95% CI: 8.19-11). The corresponding SIR for women was 1.47 (95% CI: 1.15-1.84), yielding 4.82 excess SPCs per 1000 PYR (95% CI: 2.36-9.84). The risk remained significant even after 20 years of follow-up (SIR for all 1.73, 95% CI: 1.49-2.01 and EAR 16.8 per 1000 PY, 11.88-23.75). The risk for SPC was also significantly elevated in all age groups, except <40. The highest SIRs were for SPCs arising in the mouth/pharynx (SIR for all 3.08, 95% CI: 2.36-3.95 and EAR 0.80 per 1000 PY, 0.55-1.15) and lungs (3.02, 2.75-3.30 and 5.90 per 1000, 5.13-6.78). CONCLUSION Patients with LSCC as primary cancer have a 60% excess risk for an SPC, especially for tobacco-associated cancers, remaining significantly elevated even decades after treatment.

Abstract
The incidence of radiation-induced secondary primary tumors (SPTs) is estimated to be between 1 and 20%. The oropharynx is not a common site for postradiotherapy head and neck SPTs. We describe the cases of eight patients, each with an SPT of the oropharynx. These developed after a long median latency of 17.7 years with each receiving two-dimensional radiation therapy and delivery of at least 5000 cGy per pharynx, except for one who was treated with IMRT. Tumor histological commonalities revealed squamous cell carcinoma p16 negative staining, local invasion, and limited lymphatic spread, with posterior wall of the oropharynx and the base of the tongue being the most common locations. Limited and challenging treatment options have been reported such as surgery, reirradiation, or clinical trials. Radiation-induced SP oropharyngeal carcinoma has unique clinical and pathological features. Patients with this disease have limited treatment options, which should be discussed in a multidisciplinary tumor board meeting. For this population, lifelong follow-up may help in early diagnosis and improve outcomes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The development of second primary tumours (SPTs) is one of the main causes of low survival in patients with head and neck cancer (HNC). The aim of this study was to review the evidence about factors associated with developing SPTs in patients with HNC. METHODS An updated systematic review was performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis guidelines, and the search was performed in Pubmed and Scopus. Only original articles with a cohort or case-control design were included. Article quality was assessed with the Newcastle-Ottawa scale. RESULTS Thirty-six and two case-control studies were included, with quality medium (n = 5) to high (n = 33). Tobacco showed a significant association with SPT development, with risks ranging from 1.41 (95%CI: 1.04-1.91) to 5.52 (95%CI: 2.91-10.49). Regarding alcohol, risks ranged from 1.46 (95%CI: 1.12-1.91) to 21.3 (95%CI: 2.9-156). Location of the index tumour in the hypopharynx/oropharynx, absence of human papillomavirus and presence of a premalignant lesion also increased the risk of SPTs. More controversy was found for sex, age and other clinical factors of the tumour. CONCLUSION Toxic lifestyle habits and clinical factors were associated with the risk of SPTs in HNC patients. These findings may improve individualised prevention strategies in its follow-up.

Abstract
Purpose To evaluate the mutagen sensitivity phenotype on the risk of second primary cancer (SPC) in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), and to estimate the long-term rate of SPC and the outcome with SPC. Methods A survey was made regarding SPC among 124 younger (≤ 50 years) adults with HNSCC who were enrolled in a pretreatment mutagen sensitivity investigation during 1996–2006. Mutagen sensitivity was assessed by exposing lymphocytes to bleomycin in vitro and quantifying the bleomycin-induced chromatid breaks per cell (b/c). Patients were classified as hypersensitive (> 1 b/c) or not hypersensitive (≤ 1 b/c). Results Mean follow-up time for all patients was 68 months (range: 5–288 months), and the 15-year cancer-specific survival was 15%. Twenty patients (16%) developed a SPC (15-year estimated rate: 41%), and half of them was hypersensitive. The crude rate of SPC for hypersensitive (n = 65) or not hypersensitive (n = 59) patients were 15 and 17%, respectively (p = 0.4272). The 15-year estimated rate of SPC for hypersensitive and not hypersensitive patients was 36 and 48%, respectively (p = 0.3743). Gender, UICC stages, anatomical sites of index cancer did not prove to be a significant risk factor for SPC. Forty-five percent of SPC developed after the 10-year follow-up. The 3‑year cancer-specific survival was 23% with SPC. Conclusion According to our findings, mutagen hypersensitivity was not associated with an increased SPC risk in HNSCC patients. Patients are at a lifelong risk of developing a SPC. Survival with SPC is very poor.

Abstract
Objective The improvement of the efficacy of intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) for nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) has prolonged the survival of patients, and the incidence of the second tumor has gradually increased. Among them, second primary lung adenocarcinoma (SPLAC) attributes the highest incidence. This study aimed to determine the long-term risk of SPLAC in NPC patients after IMRT. Methods From May 2005 to May 2018, a total of 1,102 non-metastatic NPC patients who received IMRT in our hospital were enrolled, and the incidence and efficacy of SPLAC were followed up in the long term. Results Over a median follow-up period of 66 months, a total of 22 cases of SPLAC were observed, with an incidence of 2.0%. The 1-, 2-, 3-, 4-, and 5-year cumulative risks of SPLAC were 0.4%, 0.7%, 0.8%, 1.1%, and 1.7%, respectively. During follow-up, 90.9% (20/22) of the SPLAC detected was in early stage, and the recurrence rate of surgery alone was 5.3% (1/19). Conclusion In NPC patients, the proportion of SPLAC after IMRT was similar to that of the normal population, and most of them were found in early stage during follow-up, with good surgical efficacy.
