Backgrounds/Aims: Although cancer survivors are at higher risk of developing second primary malignancies, cancer surveillance strategies for them have not yet been established. This study aimed to identify first primary cancers that had high risks of developing second primary exocrine pancreatic cancer (EPC). Methods: Data on individuals diagnosed with primary cancers between 1993 and 2017 were obtained from the Korea Central Cancer Registry. The standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) of second primary EPCs were analyzed according to the primary tumor sites and follow-up periods. Results: Among the 3,205,840 eligible individuals, 4,836 (0.15%) had second primary EPCs, which accounted for 5.8% of the total EPC patients in Korea. Between 1 and 5 years after the diagnosis of first primary cancers, SIRs of second primary EPCs were increased in patients whose first primary cancers were in the bile duct (males 2.99; females 5.03) in both sexes, and in the small intestine (3.43), gallbladder (3.21), and breast (1.26) in females. Among those who survived 5 or more years after the diagnosis of first primary cancers, SIRs of second primary EPCs were elevated in patients whose first primary cancers were in the bile duct (males 2.61; females 2.33), gallbladder (males 2.29; females 2.22), and kidney (males 1.39; females 1.73) in both sexes, and ovary (1.66) and breast (1.38) in females. Conclusions: Survivors of first primary bile duct, gallbladder, kidney, ovary, and female breast cancer should be closely monitored for the occurrence of second primary EPCs, even after 5 years of follow-up.

Context: Patients diagnosed with a cancer have a life time risk of developing another de novo malignancy depending on various inherited, environmental and iatrogenic risk factors. Of late the detection of new primary has increased mainly due to refinement in both diagnostic and treatment modalities. Cancer victims are surviving longer and thus are more likely to develop a new metachronous malignancy. Aims: To report our observed trend of increase in prevalence of both synchronous and metachronous second malignant neoplasms among cancer victims and to review the relevant literature. Settings and Design: A hospital based retrospective collection of prospective data of patients diagnosed with second denovo malignancy. Materials and Method: The study was conducted over a 5 year period from July 2008 to June 2012. All patients diagnosed with a histologically proven second malignancy as per Warren Gate's criteria were included. Various details regarding sex, age at presentation, synchronous or metachronous, treatment and outcome were recorded. Conclusions: The occurrence of multiple primary malignancies is not rare. Awareness of the possibility alerts the clinician in evaluation of patients with a known malignancy presenting with unusual sites of metastasis. Individualizing the treatment according to the stages of the primaries will result in durable cancer control particularly in synchronous double malignancy.

Simultaneous second primary tumors are not uncommon in patients with oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma. Many studies have previously shown that oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma patients with simultaneous second primary tumor generally have a poor prognosis. Additionally, the choice of the optimal therapeutic modality for oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma patients who present with simultaneous second primary tumor remains problematic. We reported a case of simultaneous squamous cell carcinomas in mouth floor and esophagus, that multidisciplinary team performed resection and reconstruction simultaneously.

Primary intrathoracic neoplasms occur frequently, and the most frequent intrathoracic tumors are of pulmonary or bronchogenic origin. Second in frequency are mediastinal tumors, and least frequency or comparatively rare are the neoplasms arising from the wall of the thorax and extending into the thoracic cavity. Of all intrathoracic tumors, fibroma is extremely rare. Recently, we have experienced a huge rapid growing intrathoracic fibroma originating from thoracic wall, which is removed successfully and confirmed histopathologically. Authors present one case of fibroma and discussion with a brief review of the relevant literatures.

Despite the decreasing incidence and mortality from gastric cancer, it remains a major health problem worldwide. Ninety percent of cases are adenocarcinomas. Here, we report a case of gastric adenocarcinoma developed after successful treatment of prior primary gastric diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Our patient was an elderly man with primary gastric DLBCL in whom complete remission was achieved after R-CHOP (cyclophosphamide, adriamycin, vincristine, prednisolone plus rituximab) chemotherapy. Helicobacter pylori infection persisted despite adequate treatment leading to sustained chronic gastritis. The mean time to diagnose metachronous gastric carcinoma was seven years. We believe that a combination of many risk factors, of which chronic H. pylori infection the most important, led to the development of gastric carcinoma following primary gastric lymphoma. In summary, patients who have been successfully treated for primary gastric lymphoma should be followed up at regular short intervals. H. pylori infection should be diagnosed promptly and treated aggressively.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the correlation between multiple early gastric cancer (MEGC) and multiple primary malignancies during the follow-up of patients with gastrectomy. Materials and Methods: The number of primary tumors detected in other organs after gastrectomy for early gastric cancer (EGC) has been increasing because of improved survival and surveillance programs. A total of 3,129 patients underwent radical gastrectomy for treatment of EGC at Samsung Medical Center from January 2000 to December 2005. Of these, 3,057 patients were selected and their medical records were retrospectively analyzed. Results: Among the 3,057 patients, 148 (4.8%) had MEGC, 84.5% were male, 57.4% were over 60 years old, 42.6% had a macroscopic type EGC IIb main lesion, and 68.9% had well-differentiated tumors with a significantly high incidence of MEGC. There were no differences between patients with solitary early gastric cancer (SEGC) and those with MEGC with regard to overall survival or recurrence-free survival, but MEGC was an independent risk factor for metachronous primary malignancies in other organs (P=0.004, hazard ratio [HR]=2.444). Conclusions: MEGC is not a risk factor for poor prognosis after curative gastrectomy, but it is a risk factor for metachronous primary malignancies in other organs during postoperative follow-up; therefore, careful surveillance is needed.

Multiple primary malignant neoplasms occur relatively frequently today and are important especially in the head and neck area for they usually carry a bad prognosis. Detection of a synchronous primary tumor at the time of initial work-up is crucial both for management and final outcome. The first case was a T1 hypopharyngeal cancer with a mid-esophageal second primary who complained of a huge neck node. The second case was a T3 hypopharyngeal cancer who was initially seen by the chest surgeons for a large lower esophageal tumor. The third case was a patient previously operated for stomach adenocarcinoma three years ago, who had newly developed symptoms like dysphagia and hoarseness, and was diagnosed as hypopharyngeal T3 with oropharyngeal second primary cancer. Three cases were all heavy smokers and had histories of heavy alcohol consumption. They were all treated at the same sitting by en-block resection of the involved organs and postoperative radiation therapy. The authors have recently experienced 3 cases of synchronous second primary cancers in association with hypopharyngeal cancer and a report is made.

Locoregional recurrence of tongue cancer is higher than that of other sites of the oral cavity. Locoregional control has shown improvement over the past 20 years, however, a high rate of recurrence and second primary tumor occurrence is still frequently reported. Leukoplakia is a clinical term, which describes a whitish lesion of the oral cavity. Clinicopathologic features may range from hyperkeratosis to malignancy. Because of its diverse pathologic characteristics, management of this lesion for diagnosis, treatment planning, establishment of a clear surgical margin, and periodic follow-up is difficult. We report on a case of successfully treated tongue cancer which developed from leukoplakia over 10 years. Periodic follow-up strategy and surgical planning are most important to management of locoregional recurrence.
