## Abstract The objective of the study was to assess the risk of second primary cancers (SPCs) following a primary head and neck cancer (oral cavity, pharynx and larynx) and the risk of head and neck cancer as a SPC. The present investigation is a multicenter study from 13 population‐based cancer r
## Abstract Scanty data are available on the incidence (__i.e.__, the absolute risk) of second cancers of the head and neck (HN) and its pattern with age. We investigated this issue using data from a multicentric study of 13 population‐based cancer registries from Europe, Canada, Australia and Sing
## Abstract We investigated the risk of second malignancies among 29,511 survivors of germ‐cell testicular cancer recorded in 13 cancer registries. Standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) were estimated comparing the observed numbers of second malignancies with the expected numbers obtained from sex‐,
We studied second primary cancer among 25,947 patients diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma of the skin (SCC) in Sweden between 1958 and 1992. In total, 5,706 patients developed a second primary cancer at any site, compared with an expected number of 2,651 [standardized incidence ratio (SIR) ؍ 2
Multiple primary cancers in the same individual occur rarely. Consequently, a large number of cancer patients have to be followed for long periods to obtain adequate information about their risk of subsequent tumour development. Studies of multiple malignancies are of interest, since they may provid
