Description

A peer-reviewed research article from Europe PMC (2024). Rationale:Surgical intervention for synchronous head-and-neck and esophageal cancers often results in complex dysphagia, significantly affecting postoperative quality of life. Swallowing dysfunction may become permanent or worsen, with potential impacts on noncancer-related mortality.Patient concerns:We report a rare case of multiple synchronous squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck (tonsillar and epiglottic cancer) along with esophageal cancer, presenting for dysphagia rehabilitation following surgery.Diagnoses:Comprehensive evaluations—including magnetic resonance imaging, laryngoscopy, gastroscopy, and histopathology—led to diagnoses of left tonsil cancer (squamous cell carcinoma, T2N2bM0), epiglottic cancer
