Primary @entity3270 of the hypopharynx is extremely rare. A 59-year-old @entity1 complaining of swollen right cervical lymph node was admitted to our hospital. Although computed tomography, upper endoscopy, and positron emission tomography scan were performed, the @entity75 was unknown. Bilateral neck lymph node dissection was performed and diagnosed as @entity3 of @entity3270 . Sixteen months after the first operation, computed tomography scan revealed multiple liver @entity3 . There was no another metastatic lesion, and hepatectomy with negative margin was performed. Three months after the second operation, a small @entity5 of the hypopharynx was detected by upper endoscopy, and biopsy revealed @entity3270 . Concurrent chemotherapy ( @entity900 + @entity1205 ) and radiotherapy (60 Gy) were carried out. This therapy was highly effective, and @entity75 disappeared. After the chemoradiotherapy, lung @entity3 and bone @entity3 emerged and treated by radiotherapy and chemotherapy ( @entity900 + @entity2600 ). These therapies were also effective, but multiple liver @entity3 appeared. The @entity1 died 39 months after the first surgery. Although @entity3270 is a high-grade malignancy which metastasizes easily, combined treatment strategy may be useful for these @entity1 . We have here reported, with bibliographic consideration, a case in which multimodal treatment was employed for @entity3270 with distant @entity3 .
