A population-based analysis of the risk of secondary primary malignancy (SPM) in patients with hypopharyngeal carcinoma (HPC) has been lacking in the literature. Therefore, we conducted this study to determine the risk factors and assess the effects of SPM on the overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) of patients with HPC.
