Abstract(s)
Têm-se verificado um aumento na incidência de tumores primários múltiplos (TPM), estes caracterizam-se pela existência de dois ou mais tumores primários com origem numa dada região. A cancerização em campo é uma teoria que explica o aparecimento de TPM. Fatores de risco como álcool e tabaco estão relacionados com o desenvolvimento deste campo. Outros fatores como o Vírus do Papiloma Humano (HPV) podem também estar envolvidos na origem de TPM. O aparecimento de TPM é uma das principais causas de morte em pacientes com cancro de cabeça e pescoço (CCP), deste modo é essencial proceder ao seu diagnóstico precoce para obter um melhor prognóstico.
There has been an increase in the incidence of multiple primary tumors (PMS), these are characterized by the existence of two or more primary tumors originating in a given region. Field cancerization is a theory that explains the appearance of PMS. Risk factors such as alcohol and tobacco are related to the development of this field. Other factors such as Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) may also be involved in the origin of PMS. The appearance of PMS is of the leading causes of death in patients with head and neck cancer (CCP), so it is essential to make an early diagnosis to obtain a better prognosis.
