Abstract

Multiple primary cancers involved in the larynx of differentiating synchronous multiple primary cancers from metastasis can often be very difficult, especially when they have the same histology. However, it is very important because the therapeutic approach is completely different. Clinical situations like this appear to be increasing as a result of the recent popular use of [18F] fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography/computed tomography. Herein, we report two cases of multiple primary cancers involved in the larynx.
