In 5 patients with large cell carcinoma of the lung: 1 NC. In 3 with adenocarcinoma of the lung: 1 MR. One patient with nasopharyngeal carcinoma had progressive disease. Stable disease was observed in a patient with carcinoma of the tongue and in a patient with adenocarcinoma of the esophagus. Four patients with colorectal carcinoma had progressive disease. One MR was observed in a patient with breast cancer, while all of the other 3 patients had progressive disease. One carcinoma of the penis was stable. One MR was observed in a patient with Hodgkin's disease. One PR was observed in a case with no-Hodgkin's lymphoma. A patient with acute leukemia had progressive disease. Among 9 patients with malignant melanoma, 3 had an MR and 1 patient had stable disease. A patient with fibrosarcoma had progressive disease.

Hodgkin's lymphoma in a treated case of carcinoma of the tongue outside the irradiated area is a rare occurrence. Treatment-associated second malignancies have been reported in irradiated patients. Here, we report a case of 34-year-old male who was diagnosed with carcinoma of the tongue in March 2015 and developed Hodgkin's lymphoma in October 2016. Though Hodgkin's lymphoma has been reported in the radiation area after 10 - 15 years, in this case, we encountered Hodgkin's lymphoma after treating a patient with carcinoma of the tongue after one and a half years and outside the irradiated area. To our knowledge, this is the first case of metachronous malignancy with this unusual presentation.
