Photoimmunotherapy for Managing Recurrent Laryngeal Cancer Cervical Lesions: A Case Report

We report our experience with PIT for head and neck cancer. A 76-year-old man with laryngeal cancer underwent radiation therapy and surgery. Skin involvement in the right submandibular region was subsequently noted. We diagnosed local recurrence and performed PIT for this lesion. Partial response was achieved after the first PIT session, and progressive disease was diagnosed after the second session. Many aspects of PIT remain unclear and should, therefore, be clarified in further research. Despite this uncertainty, PIT may become an effective treatment strategy for head and neck cancer if the patient selection criteria are delineated.Case Rep Oncol 2022;15:34 –39
