Non‐habit‐associated squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue in a treated breast cancer patient

Abstract

The development of second cancer following a primary cancer is an enigma for oncologists. A very few cases have been reported in the literature, wherein, a second malignancy developed following the treatment protocols of the first cancer. We report a case of a breast cancer patient who later developed oral squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue and discuss the possible etiologies of such unfavorable consequences.
