Abstract:
Two cases of tumours arising in or near the pancreatic head are reported in patients previously treated with abdominal irradiation for testicular tumours. These are only the third and fourth such cases to be reported and they suggest that second cancers may develop as a result of abdominal irradiation for malignant disease.
