It is not rare to observe multiple cancers in cases of head and neck carcinoma. Such cancers are important factors for deciding the therapeutic strategy. Complications of esophageal cancer are particularly frequent in cases of hypopharyngeal cancer in comparison to other head and neck tumors. At our department, for organ and functional preservation, and radical cure, we have used simultaneous therapy instead of separate therapy for head and neck tumors and esophageal cancer. We have been implementing concurrent S-1, nedaplatin/radiation therapy (hereinafter called SN therapy) for cases of advanced cancer of the head and neck, and we applied the same therapy for cases of head and neck carcinoma with esophageal cancer. The subjects comprised 5 cases of head and neck tumors complicated by esophageal cancer for which therapy was conducted at our department between April 2005 and March 2009. The histologic type was squamous cell carcinoma in all of the cases. There were 2 cases of laryngeal cancer (T3N2cM0, T3N0M0) and 3 cases of hypopharyngeal cancer (T3N2cM0, T4N2cM0, T3N2bM0). As a result, 3 out of the 5 cases have remained cancer-free, and the average observation period was 29. 3 months. One case expired due to an unrelated cause as a result of cardiac disease, while in the remaining case, the tumor did not disappear and the patient died due to the disease. It is necessary to continue examining the survival rate by increasing the number of cases.
